Cookies data size
Hello experts. I have a site that needs to put much data in cookies, like 8000bytes but the Apache has the header field limitted to 8192. But I have to use cookies. There is a way to compress the cookies? If no, what you suggests to me? Thanks and its urgent

Ok. But.. The data(8000bytes more sometimes and less sometimes) has to be Posted (with cookies). So i set the cookie with javascript and so click on a link and my application(php) use the data to store on the data base.
you are using features in ways they are not intended for and pushing the limits, when ever that happens it is time to rethink your design.
Hi,
What's the nature of the data, how large is the vocabulary?
Cheers,

Example if you have Apache, PHP and a database available.
Let the cookie be a unique ID identifying this user. Then save all the data related to this user in the database with reference to the unique cookie.
