Hello All,
    Is there some limitation on the size of a URL that is given as input to
the documentURL property of MSXSL?

    I am embedding the MSXSL in an HTML page and setting it's documentURL
property to a very large length URL
    .
    .
    .
<HTML>
 <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JSCRIPT" FOR="window" EVENT="onload">
(***)   var docURL = "test.xml?a=1&b=2...";_________\

/

The docURL length = 15000 chars.
   XSLControl.documentURL = docURL;
   XSLControl.styleURL = "c.xsl";
   var xslHTML = XSLControl.htmlText;
   document.write(xslHTML);
 </SCRIPT>
 <BODY>
  <OBJECT ID="XSLControl"
   CLASSID="CLSID:2BD0D2F2-52EC-11D1-8C69-0E16BC000000"
         codebase="msxsl.cab" width="100" height="100">
   <PARAM NAME="styleURL" VALUE="test.xsl">
  </OBJECT>
 </BODY>
 </HTML>
 .
 .
 .

PROBLEM
 The variable docURL(see *** above) is given a string of length = 15,000
characters.The variable docURL is then assigned to the MSXSL processor.But
IE4.01 simply closes automatically when the above code is executed with the
documentURL property of MSXSL being assigned a long length URL.

QUESTION

 1) How to pass long length docURL's to MSXSL's documentURL property without
allowing IE4.01 to close down automatically?

 Any help would be appreciated ,
      AMIT
