input
out-of-range value even if the control has min=1 and max=16 attributes.
It's not
a good UI and the reason why they doesn't use type=number.
They need a number control which
- doesn't allow any keyboard / cut&paste operations and
So, a text field part is read-only, but the spin-buttons work.
- always has a valid value.
"required" by default, and sanitization algorithm may be different.
Use <select>.
