Hello,

We are running Tomcat 4.0 on Solaris 2.8 and are using GET method on a form which 
encodes all the parameter/value pairs
into the request URL.

I am wondering if there is a limit on the length of URL as in old days when CGI was 
used. In CGI, there is such a limit
(for example, 256 characters) because the query string is stored in an environmental 
variable QUERY_STRING and this
string is subject to limitation of the underlying operating system.

We are reluctant to use POST method on that form because it causes annoying 
navigational problems -- you see some
information like "Page expires or POSTDATA expires, click Refresh to resubmit your 
information blah blah blah" when you
hit Back or Forward in your browser.
