I don't know of any content size limit for form fields. I would think the
problem might be something else. Any chance your WDDX packet has some
double-quotes in it? Because that would cause the WDDX packet to be
truncated before being sent back to the action page.
For example (not a WDDX packet, but the same thing applies):
<!--- formPage.cfm --->
<CFSET hiddenValue = "first part" & '"' & "second part">
<FORM ACTION="actionPage.cfm" METHOD="Post">
<CFOUTPUT>
<INPUT TYPE="Hidden" NAME="hiddenValue" VALUE="#hiddenValue#">
</CFOUTPUT>
</FORM>
<!--- actionPage.cfm --->
<CFOUTPUT>#FORM.hiddenValue#</CFOUTPUT>
actionPage.cfm will display:
first part
Looking at the HTML source of formPage.cfm will show you:
<FORM ACTION="actionPage.cfm" METHOD="Post">
<INPUT TYPE="Hidden" NAME="hiddenValue" VALUE="first part"second part">
</FORM>
Note the value of the hidden field's VALUE attribute. The value is "first
part" (w/o the quotes). Everything after that double quote is considered
junk and is not sent back to the server on form submit.
