John: I don't have a solution for your question. Sorry. In the
5 years that I have been doing CGI programming, I have heard and
seen references to limitations on the "GET" method.

I have to ask this question, even though I assume that you have 
thought of it already:

Have you thought of using "POST" instead? I have successfully "POSTED"
data from over 400 fields and captured all (up to 20,000 bytes, if I
remember correctly).
