    <thetext>In 4.10.7.2.8 The maxlength attribute &lt;http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/common-input-element-attributes.html#the-maxlength-attribute&gt;, the example should use most proper syntax, consistent with other examples.

e.g.

What are you doing? &lt;input name=status maxlength=140&gt;

should be:

&lt;label&gt;What are you doing? &lt;input name=&quot;status&quot; maxlength=&quot;140&quot;/&gt;&lt;/label&gt;</thetext>

    <thetext>The syntax is fine. Using &lt;label&gt; is prolly a good idea.</thetext>
