COMPRESS QUERYSTRING DATA(ASP.NET)

Question

How to compress query string data

i am using QueryString to pass data.There is about 1900 characters of data. After I URLEncode the data, it is much larger than 2042 characters. I would like to compress the data before encoding it so the resulting size is less than 2042.

can anybody have idea!

I believe the max URI length is 4095 and the max query string length is 2053 this applies to IE6. it does vary from browser to browser. how about writing all those characters to a memo field in a database on the server. Then you can pass the ID of that db record in your query string and the child page can retrieve the record. The Session object can also be used as well but storing large amounts of data may take its toll on the server resources if user usage is high.
