When defining an input html field having a maxlength, it will be recognized in the form when entering data directly.
But when a value is selected from the field fill in list (do not know the correct term..) - the list that pops up when double click on the input filed, then you can select values which are longer than the maxlength set. The browser will accept them without truncation or whatsoever
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a sample page like this :
<html>
<body>
<p> the following should be restricted
<form id="msgform" method="POST" action="http://abc">
<input type="text" size="3" maxlength="3"
class="tf" tabindex="1"
name="awf8_p"
value="N" />
<input type="submit" name="msgpf.action.submit"
value="Submit" />
</form>
</body>
</html>
2. Enter "ABC" in the entry field and submit (will go nowhere..)
3. Reduce the maxlength and size values to 1
4. Reload the page and enter "A" -> it will display "ABC" as possible value
5. when "ABC" has been selected, then ABC will be in the entry field
Actual Results:
The value longer than maxlength is accepted in the entry field
Expected Results:
It should only accept values from the list up to the defined maxlength and truncate the rest
