Hi all,
  In an application I am developing I have to move the user from one server to another 
for secure transactions, to do this I need to transport a structure full of details 
(thier order, thier customer details, miscellaneous other stuff), so I was just going 
to WDDX the structure and URLEncodedFormat() it as a variable on a URL used in a 
CFLOCATION from a page accepting a form on the insecure server to a page on the secure 
server, I've done it before with smaller structures which worked well and didn't 
expect any problems with this.  

However there was, the URL seemed to be too long and was getting truncated (at least 
by IE, havn't checked in NS) thus screwing everything up, I checked by placing the 
generated URL into a standard anchor and the same this happened - URL truncated.  

I have changed to generating the structure in the fuse which displays the form that 
the user submits to `goto' the secure server and WDDXifing it into a hidden form 
field, not really what I wanted but it will do.

Does anybody know if there is a standard limit on the length of a URL, if thr is - 
then WDDXifing things into the URL is not a good idea and I won't be doing it again 
and might have to revisit an older project or two to change this.

Thanks...
James Sleeman
