Details

User-Agent: Opera/9.52 (Windows NT 5.1; U; pl) Build Identifier: 3.0.1 Let's create a textbox and enter a text there with length of e.g. 255 chars. Firefox remembers this form data. Let's then set the maxlength of the textbox to e.g. 125 chars. Using autocomplete functionality I am still able to enter those 255 chars into textbox, which is wrong. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Steps are in the details section, just create a html page for yourself. 2. 3. Actual Results: In my application too long text was submitted to DB and query crashed. Expected Results: Do not let me enter too long text.
> In my application too long text was submitted to DB and query crashed. You need to do server-side checks too, so malicious users (who might use modified web browsers) can't screw up your database...
