sorry - I tested this again after seeing this bug years ago, and it is working. just keep working folks, and do a good job. thanks. sorry for the noise. this was lazy of me.
here's the test file, but you have to manually put in characters and check for a visible insertion bar (that it has focus?), i don't know how you do that with your test suite. <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head><title>maxlength test of input tag</title></head> <body> <form> <input type="text" name="something" value="123" maxlength="3"> </form> </body> </html>
it was as far back as 3.x I think. like I said - I was being lazy.
