IE cutting URL to less than 2048 is a known limitation of IE. I'm not sure how to relax the constraints. But I guess there will be ways.

Subject: [OpenLayers-Users] Problem with maximum URL length
Hi all,
I have a project with many WMS layers which have rather long layer names. Now I seem to be hitting a maximum URL length restriction of IE in the GetFeatureInfo request. See also
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/208427
Do you have any ideas for a workaround? Would a post request work with OpenLayers.Control.WMSGetFeatureInfo ?
My project has >50 layers with rather long names and while debugging I saw that the URL was around 3000 characters long. IE just cut the URL off at 2047 characters and my WMS server resulted in a 500 error code.
Any ideas?
Thank you very much,
Andreas
