Description mvdleij 2016-04-07 16:56:03 UTC 
I get the error "Attribute maxlength is only allowed when the input type is email, password, search, tel, text, or url." for the following HTML:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<HTML>
<HEAD><TITLE>x</TITLE></HEAD>
<BODY>
<INPUT TYPE='TEXT' MAXLENGTH='250'>
</BODY></HTML>

Changing the HTML to use "TYPE='text'" (lowercase) makes the error go away, which would indicate that the uppercase "TEXT" is not recognized correctly.
