# Querystring Too Long – Causes Error

 * When using the filtering function to display 100 records and then selecting those
   records to be deleted, I am receiving this error:
 * Request-URI Too Long
    The requested URL’s length exceeds the capacity limit for
   this server.
 * I haven’t tried the other Records Per Page values. Please note that I am not 
   willing to change the max url length on my server.
 * You are attaching all of the data for each record being deleted to the querystring.
   In addition, each time I interact with the filtering function, it keeps appending
   more and more values to the querystring.
 * To get past this, I am keeping the filter at default and removing 10 records 
   at a time. This becomes very tedious with a large number of records. I try to
   avoid the Trash All function if I have more than a couple hundred records to 
   be deleted.
 * Please reconsider your methodology for how you get data to the server. Also, 
   for the Trash All functionality, please consider providing some type of visual
   feedback that the operation is in progress.
 * Thank you for this awesome plugin!
