PHP Question

I'm trying to build a website using PHP which will display articles, using only 2 HTML pages. One used as a menu for the user to chose the article he wants to display, and the second one displays the article.
What will be the best way to store the articles? I thought storing
the articles on a MySql database, but can 1 field in a database
contain an entire article??

it should. MySQL can hole upto 4T bytes now I think. the latest version that is.

or ou can have the article in a different folder on the server and just have the name to that article in the DB, that way you don't have to worry about the size of the table.
