I couldn't pull the sense of the main thread, but fwiw Jason's absolutely

right here... when an object requests an URL of the browser, then browsers

do vary in the length of URLs they'll accept. This varies by browser brand,

version, and platform. Keeping URLs at something resembling normal length

is a good idea.
