is there a limitation of html checkox that i'm not aware of...
thanks...

Actually it could be more... it's just that a possible search would return
one or more records... so i got to be able to process it and show
checkboxes...
anyways, the problem is in the form method... when you have so many
checkboxes you cannot use the method="get" since i think the query strings
added in the url post is long and the browser is limited. so try using
method="post" instead...
thanks...

I think your issue has to do more with design than what you're asking. Is
an user interface really useful when there are 200-500 checkboxes to choose
from? Maybe not...
Try reorganizating your data so that it can be either narrowed down or
presented differently, maybe thru a search prior to presentation of the
final form.

Thanks for clarrifying that.
URL limitations are a micro$oft 'feature' eh?
Why am I not surprised? ;->

Ok I looked it up:
The HTTP 1.1 (RFC2068) does not explicitly limit the length of the URL
to anything. The length of a URL is unbounded.
Most versions of Internet Explorer have a well defined hard limit of
2083 characters for the length of the URL.

No, but there is a limitation of max length (around 2000, not sure) of
the GET URL in IE.
So if you have a plenty of input fields, you can easily reach this
length. Try to use
POST instead.
