passing a long xml string to href

I am trying to pass a very long xml string through href from a jsp page. But when i am clicking on the link its displaying just a blank page. This link should basically take me to a spring controller but isn't going there.

Is there any limit on the length of param being passed in URL. And if so how can w开发者_如何学运维e pass it from a web page.

Even though the standards don't dictate it there is a limit to the length of an URI it differs per browser but the general consensus is 2048 bytes. You should POST your XML data.
