Comment:
In &quot;Authors should not specify the maxlength attribute on input elements whose
type attribute is in the Number state.&quot;, shouldn&apos;t this be the &quot;size&quot;
attribute? Note that validator.nu doesn&apos;t raise warnings (but instead errors)
for either case.

    <thetext>OK, I just noticed that bug #9760 and bug #12781 are relevant. But yet &quot;render the text field with a useful width&quot; doesn&apos;t describe maxlength&apos;s behavior. I&apos;ve changed the title of this bug as such.</thetext>
