>I didn't think a URL Encoded String had a max limitation.
I've been looking around for some evidence and not found much but chatter
*but* I have found a lot of it, and lots of people are quoting 256 (old
stuff) or 1024
eg
http://forums.allaire.com/devconf/Thread.cfm?&Message_ID=364207&_#Message364
207
this is nowhere need the size I need so if I can post to a flash movie that
would make my day.
I actually just tested this with a large descriptive string and the result
was 1412 chars on the resulting page - the string passed was much larger
than this. Perhaps other systems react differently

Subject: Re: Integrating with Flash
I didn't think a URL Encoded String had a max limitation. Been working with
Onload Variables in Flash from a CF file for months now. Works fine. Now I
just wish there was a way to speed
things up into the low milli-second range ;) Actually now that I think about
it I don't believe there is a limitation on the String if there is can
anyone let me know what number it is?
Thanks,
Jack
