I was just fooling about and wondered if there was a limit to how many characters you could enter in the address bar field...

I tried it in MyIE2 and it let me enter 24,155 characters before beeping I was @ the end!!! (I put the whole string in notepad after and of course you know notepad tells you how many characters there are)

I havent tried it in IE6 yet.....

24,155??? -- Wow no one would EVER use that amount of characters!!

EDIT:

IE6 only lets me enter 2048 characters
