XMLHttpRequest POST Data Size
- by usurper
Hi,
Is there a size limit to a XHR POST request? I am using the POST method for saving textdata into MySQL using PHP script and the data is cut off. Firebug sends me the following message:
... Firebug request size limit has been reached by Firebug. ...
This is my code for sending the data:
function makeXHR(recordData)
{
xmlhttp = createXHR();
var body = "q=" + encodeURIComponent(recordData);
xmlhttp.open("POST", "insertRowData.php", true);
xmlhttp.setRequestHeader("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
xmlhttp.setRequestHeader("Content-length", body.length);
xmlhttp.setRequestHeader("Connection", "close");
xmlhttp.onreadystatechange = function()
{
if(xmlhttp.readyState == 4 && xmlhttp.status == 200)
{
//alert(xmlhttp.responseText);
alert("Records were saved successfully!");
}
}
xmlhttp.send(body);
}
The only solution I can think of is splitting the data and making a queue of XHR requests but I don't like it. Is there another way?
