The Internet Explorer versions 5 and 6 allowed up to 2,047 characters in the address bar as url which will include your query string........

So before you start thinking that 2,047 is a lot, it's not like you can go ahead and use all of those characters. That limit is even less once you deduct the address of your site, the path to the requested file, and even the requested file name.

The HTTP protocol does not place any a priori limit on the length of
a URI. Servers MUST be able to handle the URI of any resource they
serve, and SHOULD be able to handle URIs of unbounded length if they
provide GET-based forms that could generate such URIs. A server
SHOULD return 414 (Request-URI Too Long) status if a URI is longer
than the server can handle (see section 10.4.15).
It's left up to the web server implementation to decide.
