Actually, there's no Javascript tied to that INPUT tag.besides, isn't the SIZE/MAXLENGTH restriction handled by the browser itself, no matter if Javascript is turned on or off?

Or they're running through some sort of proxy like privoxy that changes the html/javascript code to block ads and such?

I just got an automatically generated email from one of the sites I work on, containing a Cold Fusion error. The error was caused by a CFQUERYPARAM tag trying to save a too-long string to a database. I went to the original page, thinking that an INPUT tag is missing a MAXLENGTH attribute somewhere. But it turns out that the INPUT tag indeed has its both SIZE and MAXLENGTH in place. It works as it should when I tested it in IE 7.0 and Foxfire. So, the question is, how did this too-long string (which was the value "Colorado") get past a 2-character text box? One possibility would be a custom-written form outside the web server, but the HTTP_REFERRER variable pointed at the original page on the web server. If it helps anything, the user agent was "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 6.0; GTB5; SLCC1;.NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.0.04506; MS-RTC LM 8" which looks like IE 7.0, if I'm reading it correctly.
