title: Is there such a thing as too many variables in a PHP GET request?
body: <p>I'm writing a web app in PHP that is basically a template designer. Users enter their measurements, colours, etc. in a form, and on submit they see a preview. All the defined variables show up in the URL (e.g. <a href="http://mysite.com/template.php?height=100&amp;width=300&amp;color=blue" rel="nofollow">http://mysite.com/template.php?height=100&amp;width=300&amp;color=blue</a>...)</p>
  
  <p>I have about 100 such variables so needless to say the resulting URL can get pretty messy. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but I'm new to PHP so I was just wondering if there's a better way to do this? Does it slow down the browser unnecessarily to have 100 variables passing through a GET request?</p>
