>- see footer for list info -< I am not sure there is a limit, but it is good practice to try and shorten them down to the bare minimum. The Web Server may be the problem in that IIS can be set to not allow URL's with more than a certain length/byte size.
Some email clients will simply cut off long hyperlinks as well. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mark Smyth Sent: 24 October 2005 11:52 To: 'Coldfusion Development' Subject: [CF-Dev] OT Maximum Hyperlink Length >- see footer for list info -< Does any know the maximum link length (including url variables) that IE can handle? I've got a system which allows users to enter hyperlinks and its currently capped at 300 characters, but someone here has links they need to enter which are around 400 characters long, which i'm going to have to accommodate. I'm quite surprised a link that long works to be honest, so does anyone know off the top of their heads how long links have to be before IE stops reading them?
