Wait until they find out about browser URL length limits :)

  I was wondering the same thing. Most browsers limit URLs to 2083 characters. Edit: IE is 2083, Chrome is 1032

    Name one modern browser (let alone “most”) that does that. I’ll wait. PS: IE6-9 don’t count as modern browsers, and haven’t for a long time. To my knowledge, they were the only browsers to limit to exactly 2083 characters.

      if you wait long enough, someone will submit patches to firefox and chrome to fix this ridiculous 100k bytes url limit to something smaller
      • jsjohnst 7y ago
        Patches have been proposed before, but not accepted. That said, great point. ;)

    Many servers use a low limit. But it's configurable.

  Chrome and Safari don’t have a limit, Firefox supports over 100k. So what browser are you referencing here?
