Hi
What is the maximum lenght for URL parameter in remote HTTP access like this?


Request.New1(URL)
Response.New1
Response.Value = Request.GetResponse
sqlres = Response.GetString
Response.Close


I am watching a 414 resp.code (request-URI too large)
Thanks

This is a real FAQ on the internet - how much data can you input into a browser GET request? - and there's no definite answer.

It seems to be dependant on the browser as well as the web server configuration.

With a WebView accessing local files there is no web server so the limit is purely down to the WebView limits.

I've seen reports of 2MB GET requests with a WebView and there's no problem.

Google is your friend!

Martin.
