IE limitation in UR (address) length....CAN THIS BE TRUE? 1

[WildWest]

I'm build a web application this is passing variables in the URL string in the address bar and seem to have encountered a limitation in the URL (Address) length. It works fine in Netscape but it doesn't work in IE. I think IE has a limit and if so, does anyone know how I can get around it????

Thanks in advance!!!!

I overcame a similar problem when designing a website... my solution was to use php sessions - store all your variable in a session and just pass the session id number to the new page.

I'm sure a similar procedure will work with different active server technologies.
