Post limit.
Is there any limit to the amount of data that can be posted or a lenght for a url getted?
Re: Post limit.
time to read the http1.1 specs

offcourse there is also a php restriction... max_upload or whatever it is calledThe HTTP protocol does not place any a priori limit on the length of
a URI. Servers MUST be able to handle the URI of any resource they
serve, and SHOULD be able to handle URIs of unbounded length if they
provide GET-based forms that could generate such URIs. A server
SHOULD return 414 (Request-URI Too Long) status if a URI is longer
than the server can handle (see section 10.4.15).
Note: Servers ought to be cautious about depending on URI lengths
above 255 bytes, because some older client or proxy
implementations might not properly support these lengths.
The HTTP spec doesn't specify, so it will vary from server to server (possibly browser to browser as well).
IE has a limit of 2083 chars.
