Internet Explorer has a maximum uniform resource locator (URL) length
of 2,083 characters, with a maximum path length of 2,048 characters.
This limit applies to both POST and GET request URLs.

If you are using the GET method, you are limited to a maximum of 2,048
characters (minus the number of characters in the actual path, of
course).

POST, however, is not limited by the size of the URL for submitting
name/value pairs, because they are transferred in the header and not
the URL.

RFC 2616, Hypertext Transfer Protocol -- HTTP/1.1
(ftp://ftp.isi.edu/in-notes/rfc2616.txt), does not specify any
requirement for URL length.
