How much data (Max K) can go into a QueryString?..

Answer / usha

Servers should be cautious about depending on URI lengths
above 255 bytes, because some older client or proxy
implementations may not properly support these lengths.

The spec for URL length does not dictate a minimum or
maximum URL length, but implementation varies by browser. On
Windows: Opera supports ~4050 characters, IE 4.0+ supports
exactly 2083 characters, Netscape 3 -> 4.78 support up to
8192 characters before causing errors on shut-down, and
Netscape 6 supports ~2000 before causing errors on start-up
