I'm trying to get netclient to download an xml file from my
subscription at weather.com but a strange thing happened. I try to send a fairly long GET message (containing a search string, a few parameters and ID+password), and it seems to work on a regular browser but not in PD. When I connect the message box containing the GET message to a print object it doesn't print the whole string in the console, it seems like there's a limit on either the message box(how many characters it can send) or the print object(in which case I'm probably chasing the wrong problem altogether).
there is definitely i limit in [print]; there might be a limit in the symbol-length but i never found one (the longest symbol i ever made was some 20.000 chars long)
i'm not really sure whether there is a limit in the message-box, but i guess as long as you don't need to save the content of the message-box (by saving the patch) you should be fine.
