See Question&Answers more detail:osPrior to MySQL 5.0.3, a VARCHAR could only store up to 255 characters.
See the storage requirements section of the manual for caveats on their usage.
Versions of MySQL after 5.0.3 can store up to 65535 chars in a VARCHAR (However you cannot store more than 65535 bytes in a single row).
