I believe it's somewhere around 65535 characters allowed in the POST method.
I ran into that error a while back while trying to mimic something like "blogger" where you can highlight text and save blog it, but that was using the GET method. What I had to do was (using javascript) copy the form field into the users clipboard, then call it in the action page. But then again, I'm not sure how much data the clipboard can handle. Maybe someone else has a better solution? ______________________ steve oliver atnet solutions, inc. http://www.atnetsolutions.com -----Original Message----- From: Eric Homa [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, February 13, 2002 3:27 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Form Data - Post Hi, Anyone know if there is a limit on the number of characters that can be submitted from the client browser to the server using <cfform method=post>? I am using a couple of memo fields along with other fields and it's worked for 4 months. Today the customer called and described an error message that he was getting. It is an error message from my code when I check for the existence of a field (IsDefined) that directly follows one of the memo fields. I'm think that he copied and pasted so much data into the form field that the browser (or the protocol) cannot handle it. Any ideas?
