You can store the contents in a TEXT field.
Although I disagree with filling a database with file contents if storing the filename and path will suffice

Hi.

The BLOB fields are designed to store binary data. Perfect to store stuff like images and other non-text files.

I wrote an article on how to use it in the PHP section.
