featurepanel widget ajax request can bug on some configuration using IE 7 and 8 when a request is too long (too many parameter). The bug seem appear on a minority of computer using IE7 and IE8.

Fixed in r1131.
Fix info
When using the featurepanel_selector 'method' option, the parameters were append to the URL directly, thus resulting in very long GET requests. To fix this, the 'params' method used, which automatically convert the method to POST instead. It supports string value, so not much change was needed.
Small change to the patch
I changed the string concatenation method following this good behavior : http://trac.osgeo.org/openlayers/wiki/CodingStandards/StringConcatenation
my fix !
