command line too long and causing error

[ctaylor]

We have just run into a major problem. Currently when adding or editing a record if the string sent to the server is over a certain length (not sure the exact length) an error is returned. I have taken a look at another database that doesn't have this problem, so I know there is a way around this.

I am currently having my form display the results page to show the user the added record or the changes made. This isn't how the other one is done, but I don't see why this would make a difference. Any help would be great. Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Chris

i have had a similar problem.. what method is your form using?? get or post.. it should be using post, because if you use get it will not work very well if you try to send to big of a string.

the form should look similar to this

<form action="FMPro" method="post">
