Answer 1

I don't know a lot about PHP, but query string is not the only way to send data from a page to another, you can try session variables, cookies, save and retrieve from a db, ....

Because Query strings have a limited number of char, different from a browser to another

Answer 2

Use a POST instead of a GET, as GETs are restricted to 2000 characters or thereabouts, depending on the browser and web server.
