It seems I'm stuck with this method. Don't know Java. Otherwise, how
could it be done off-line?

I can't. The log file is generated and that's it. He's paying for a
service that he resells and he's given the log file. They won't
change it. He needs a way to process it.
That's why I'd prefer to just generate a dynamic query, store it as
WDDX and pass it from page to page. I'm just curious how large of a
variable I can pass like that.
