Greg, Can you post the actual error message that you are receiving? Also, what are you doing with the post? Are you placing it into a database? Is that database column setup for text fields of this size?

I am trying to post a form that uses fckeditor to post a large amount of rich text. 5000+ chars. I have also tried this with out fck editor and just a normal textarea and still get the problem. If the chars is small then the post works. I have read that different brioswers have url lenght limist, but this is in a form post so it shouldnt be in the url. Am I missing something that is making the form data end up in the url? I get a error that says url too long. this appears to be a browser error and not a cfm or web server error. I increased the limit in the cf admin to 1000 MB per post and still had the same error. (I set that back to a lower amount after testing) The setup/environment: I am using the post method in the form, cfserver 7.02 enterprise, windows server 2000, have tried it with IE6 and the latest firefox. IE wont even submit the form, and firefox gives the error. Also using a standard submit buttton, and have tried with a button calling the submit via javascript After the post with a smaller amount of data all the data is in the url of the address bar. Is there a way to block that so the form post isnt in the url? I havent had this problem before. Any feedback would be great Thanks Greg ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Create robust enterprise, web RIAs.
