The documentation reads: "Just like when using a normal Form, each form in
the formset may include HTML attributes such as maxlength for browser
validation." (https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.10/topics/forms/formsets
/#formset-validation)
NB: **form** may include HTML attributes such as maxlength.
What astonishes me: this is not the form that may include maxlength. This
is a **field in Django and input tag in HTML**. Well, a form can contain
maxlength neither in Django nor in HTML as far as I know.
Example:
{{{
class ArticleForm(forms.Form):
title = forms.CharField(max_length=5)
}}}
Which results in:
{{{
<table>
<tr>
<th>
<label for="id_form-0-title">Title:</label>
</th>
<td>
<input id="id_form-0-title" maxlength="5" name="form-0-title"
type="text" value="Test" />
</td>
</tr>
</table>
}}}
Offered wording: Just like when using a normal Form, **each form field in
each form in the formset** may include HTML attributes such as maxlength
for browser validation.
