Something I'm now bumping into...

http://www.boutell.com/newfaq/misc/urllength.html

Of all the browsers out there, almost all of them can handle 80,000, 100,000, 
even 190,000. Yes, Opera can handle one hundred and ninety THOUSAND characters 
on the URL line and still drink a martini.

But of course, robust, market leader Internet Explorer wimps out at 2083 and 
won't even pass the processing to the next *&^(#^# page. Won't even clip or 
crop. It reports an error, and stops right there.

Even IIS, a Microsoft product, can handle over 16,000 characters as a URL.  But 
their browser? Ehhh.... Nah.

I have an applet that returns a list of files to the URL and executes. I don't 
think I can redirect this to a form. I'll contact the vendor about it, but it's 
looking like I have an issue.

What's CF's limit, BTW. Anyone know?

Mik
