What about CF... no problems with URL's if that length?

Locked down to IE6 with IIS5 as it's an intranet app.....  I see what
you are saying and it's a much better way of doing it with hidden form
variables... 
the URL length just kinda creeped up on me and I really don't want to
change it now unless I have to....

Which co-incidentally will probably be tomorrow's task since it's
bloomin by 7:30 here and I should be well on my way home

Cheers Ben :-)
