Hi,
You may be rusty, but you are correct about the limitations. I am not sure
if this is the problem, but I know that some servers limit GET requests to
240 characters. I believe POST requests are virtually unlimited (megabytes
allowed). Also, if I remember correctly, POSTs cannot be bookmarked or
e-mailed making them safer for passing sensitive information such as credit
card numbers, etc.
Good luck!
