Is there a len limit I can POST to URL using MSXML2.XMLHTTP30???

[Chris]

I'm using the following object and class in a vb6 app. MSXML2.XMLHTTP30

My sURLParams var below contains a URL and an xml packet as an input param.

sURLParams = "https://www.myweb.com/jsvc.jsp?XML=[xml message]"

objXMLHttp.Open "POST", sURLParams, True

When the sURLParams length gets beyond a certain number, limit appears to be
around 1200 characters, and "Automation Error" is returned when the .Send
method is called. Keeping the length under 1200 seems to send fine.

Is there an actual length limit? Maybe it is the format of my data?

Thanks in advance.

I know of no such limit with XMLHTTP Chris. Even if there were, that
particular error isn't the one you'd expect.

This sounds more like a problem with object references. Are you sure whether
it's your client that is getting this error? For instance, have you proved
whether the server actually sees this request or not? Is the client
application a normal desktop GUI application, or a server-side one itself?
