I've been reliably informed that 8190 bytes is the maximum size available for the get method and anything over this should be done using the post method. Thanks to all that took the time to look at this for me.

Talk of drop-down menus confuses me, I don't think this text is from the Apache Software Foundation. Are you using the IBM HTTP Server or similar? You can certainly increase LimitRequestLine in Apache 2.2:- http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/core.html#limitrequestline but I think you're probably using some repackaged version of 1.3 which does have a compiled in limit as you describe. If so I can't think of any way to increase it.
