[WSG] XHTML strict maxlength

Thu, 10 Aug 2006 05:00:32 -0700

Hi all,
 
Just having some trouble with validating I keep getting the report this report about the maxlength property:
 
Error Line 69 column 100: there is no attribute "maxlength".
...id="good-turn-description" maxlength="50" title="Tell us about it"/></textar.

And my line of code is:
<textarea name="test" cols="40" rows="5" id="description" maxlength="50" title="Tell us about it"/></textarea>

And my doctype is:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">

As far as I can see, maxlength is a valid XHTML strict attribute, can anyone tell me why this isn't validating?!

Cheers,
Paul
