"The requested URL's length exceeds the capacity limit for this server"

Ive created an online thingie which is used for editing quotes. Currently this posts the contents of the form to a process.php file that puts it in the database once its been edited using $_GET. The problem im having is that when these quotes get too large (as they often do) I get the above error. Is there any way of increasing this limit or a different approach to coding it? Ive tried changing the process.php to use $_POST instead of $_GET but this doesnt change anything.

Thanks

Change $_GET to $_POST and edit the HTML form code: change action="get" to action="post"

the forms action is

Code:

action="process_edit.php"

I dunno which action that defaults to... I think its post though

Method, not action

If there's no method=, add method="post" after the action
