User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9) Gecko/2008052906 Firefox/3.0 Build Identifier: A workaround to support IE's severe limitations would be as follows: Create a table, URLS, with token,url,who,creation_ts. When performing searches, add a simplified url to the table with a random token. Provide a link to redir.cgi?token=xxxx to each of the 'action' links (change cols, change multiple, csv) in order to provide a shorter URL for queries Create a page, redir.cgi, that accepts a token from the uri and redirects the user to the stored url from the db that matches the given token I know this sounds JUST like tinyurl.com, and it should. That is a great concept. Reproducible: Didn't try
