This is classic asp or asp.net?

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I have a &lt;form method =&quot;post&quot; action=&quot;action.asp&quot;&gt;<br />
&lt;input type=&quot;text&quot; name=&quot;data&quot; value=&lt;%=string%&gt;&gt;<br />
<br />
When the string is very long &nbsp;(say 256K) it is not passed to action.asp.<br />
<br />
When I set<br />
data=request.form(&quot;data&quot;)<br />
<br />
And response.write data<br />
<br />
I get an error.<br />
<br />
Not allowed<br />
<br />
Wtih shorter strings it works fine. This is on my server windows 2012 iis 8.<br />
<br />
I am sure there is a setting to allow larger strings. I just cant figure out where to set/reset it<br />
<br />
Any ideas?

Data passed in post  too long asp

Active Server Pages (ASP) is Microsoft’s first server-side engine for dynamic web pages. ASP’s support of the Component Object Model (COM) enables it to access and use compiled libraries such as DLLs. It has been superseded by ASP.NET, but will be supported by Internet Information Services (IIS) through at least 2022.
