A simple example:
jeff=# CREATE TABLE test(
jeff(# id INTEGER,
jeff(# stuff TEXT);
CREATE
jeff=# INSERT INTO test VALUES(42, 'Something');
INSERT 64908 1
jeff=# SELECT * FROM test;
id | stuff
----+-----------
42 | Something
(1 row)
I cannot attest for PHP usage: post to the pgsql-php list for that.

For version 7.1 there is no longet a limit on the length of field of
type 'text'.
