You should write (stripos($field->Type, 'char') !== false || stripos($field->Type, 'text') !== false) instead of (stripos($field->Type, 'char') || stripos($field->Type, 'text')) because stripos($field->Type, 'text') returns 0 with mysql field type text But nice code anyway! Hi!

You should write
(stripos($field->Type, ‘char’) !== false || stripos($field->Type, ‘text’) !== false)
instead of
(stripos($field->Type, ‘char’) || stripos($field->Type, ‘text’))

because stripos($field->Type, ‘text’) returns 0 with mysql field type text

But nice code anyway!
