This was done partially and inconsistently. Just follow these steps to change your gnatsweb.pl. 1) Add this function: sub strip_empty_params { my ($url) = @_; $url =~ s/(\w|-)+=;//g; return $url; } 2) Change every occurence of "$q->self_url()" with "strip_empty_params($q->self_url())" exception in: my ($query_string) = strip_empty_params($q->self_url() =~ m/^[^?]*\?(.*)$/); remove eventual lines like "$query_string =~ s/(\w|-)+=;//g;" following the changed line 3) idem with this line in sub store_query: my $query_string = $q->query_string(); Regards -- Alwin -----Original Message----- From: Tim Buck [mailto:tbuck@rrinc.com] Sent: mercredi, 26. janvier 2005 22:44 To: help-gnats@gnu.org Subject: [GNATSWeb] URL length limitation in IE Has anyone found a way to get around Internet Explorer's 2083 character URL length limitation in GNATSWeb? (besides not using IE -- some of my users would revolt if I took that option away). 2083 seems like a lot, but when doing Advanced Queries the column names and such add up very quickly!
