Type 123 in the input form What is the expected behavior? 12 is displayed What went wrong? 123 is displayed Did this work before? N/A Does this work in other browsers? N/A Safari version: Release 100 (Safari 13.2, WebKit 15610.1.2.1)) Channel: Tech Preview OS Version: OS X 10.15 Flash Version: What is the spec saying https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/input.html#attr-input-maxlength > The maxlength attribute, when it applies, is a form control maxlength attribute. Following https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/form-control-infrastructure.html#attr-fe-maxlength > Constraint validation: If an element has a maximum allowed value length, its dirty value flag is true, its value was last changed by a user edit (as opposed to a change made by a script), and the JavaScript string length of the element's API value is greater than the element's maximum allowed value length, then the element is suffering from being too long. > > User agents may prevent the user from causing the element's API value to be set to a value whose JavaScript string length is greater than the element's maximum allowed value length. It doesn't seem a hard constraint, but ## results for type='number' 1. enter into the url bar ``` data:text/html,<input type='number' maxlength='2'/> ``` 2. type 123 Results in different browsers * firefox: 12 (75.0a1 (2020-02-18) (64-bit)) * chrome: 123 (Version 82.0.4062.4 (Build officiel) canary (64 bits)) * safari: 123 (Release 100 (Safari 13.2, WebKit 15610.1.2.1)) ## results for type='text' ``` data:text/html,<input type='text' maxlength='2'/> ``` Results in different browsers * firefox: 12 (75.0a1 (2020-02-18) (64-bit)) * chrome: 12 (Version 82.0.4062.4 (Build officiel) canary (64 bits)) * safari: 12 (Release 100 (Safari 13.2, WebKit 15610.1.2.1)) This was originally filed as a bug on mozilla bugzilla https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1616620
tkent commented on the chromium issue. https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1054251#c2 https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/input.html#number-state-(type=number) > The following content attributes must not be specified and do not apply to the element: accept, alt, checked, dirname, formaction, formenctype, formmethod, formnovalidate, formtarget, height, maxlength, minlength, multiple, pattern, size, src, and width. So probably webkit is fine. and firefox needs to fix it.
