Data protocol URL size limitations

Question

Is there any size limitation for \"data:\" URL scheme values? I\'m interested in limitations in popular web browsers. In other words, how long can data:image/jpg;base6

Answer 1

Just an FYI, I was able to load a 130K image using a data url in Firefox 3.5 from a JavaScript ajax call. It truncated the image in IE 8, but the whole thing showed up in FF.
