Thanks Laura, You are the first to confirm a size limit. Like you, I found a way around it. It just would have been nice to know about this up front. For all I know, it actually is documented somewhere and folks just do not hit that limit due to other limiting factors.
Any idea if it was a 15k limit on a property, or a 15k limit on the overall RBO?

The app was fine, and then all of a sudden it stopped working. The RBO was very straight forward - it captured data from the web, and then transmitted it to the back end. IIRC, the limit was just over 15,000 characters. I didn't redesign the whole app, but instead looped on the submission - limiting the # of rows submitted each itteration. The client had a bunch of RBOs with a bunch of submissions, and we were suprised to find a limit. But it was absolutely reproduceable. I don't think that they ever encountered this problem since then, and it's real possible that an application upgrade (redback, unidata) also helped. Hope that helps! Or at least you have a sympathetic ear. -Laura -----Original Message----- From: "Israel, John R."

I develop with FF with a Web Developer plug-in that helps a lot. I validate with IE, Chrome, Opera and Safari, but FF is my preferred browser.
