[TYPO3-core] RFC: Feature 16170: Increase DB-fields spaceBefore and spaceAfter

[Henrik Ziegenhain]

This is an SVN patch request.

Type: Feature

BT: http://bugs.typo3.org/view.php?id=16170

Branches: trunk

Problem:
Sometimes it is necessary to enter more than 255px margin before or 
after a CE.
At the moment the corresponding fields in DB are tinyint which can only 
hold 255 as maximum.

Solution:
Increase these fields to smallint, this should be enough :)
"For example, a column specified as SMALLINT(3) has the usual SMALLINT 
range of -32768 to 32767, and values outside the range permitted by 
three digits are displayed in full using more than three digits."

How to reproduce:
  - Enter 300 to spaceAfter and save
  - check whats in this field now: 255
  - apply the attached patch
  - Enter 300 to spaceAfter and save
  - check whats in this field now: 300

Regards
Henrik
