title: MYSQL storing input values in one row or multiple rows
body: <p>I'm working with PHP and MySQL, and I'm not too experienced with database design. I know the basics of normalization, however my question is about storing vales from a specific form I have.</p>
  
  <p>Ok, so the way my page in question is set up, there are text boxes that can be dynamically added or removed. If the user presses a "+" or "-" button it adds or removes another text box. </p>
  
  <p>Anyway, when I pull the text box values via $_POST it is an array, and then I convert it to a string using implode() Ex: user enters "hello" "world" "bye" "world", implode converts it to the following string "hello,world,bye,world".</p>
  
  <p>My question is would it be better to store this string "hello,world,bye,world" in 1 row as 1 entry, or would it be better to break this string into 4 separate strings and store it in 4 different rows?  Each text box will contain questions/comments so they could be potentially long and most likely not 1 word like the example I gave.</p>
  
  <p>The reason why I'm asking this is because all of these inputs will be used on the same page, so they can all share a unique ID. Instead of querying multiple times, I'd only have to query once.</p>
