Glen Mazza commented on ROL-1959:
---------------------------------
The Maxlength field for Yahoo! I got from clicking on "Create New Account"
here: https://login.yahoo.com/
and it shows: <input type="password" name="password" id="password" value=""
size="32" maxlength="32" class="" aria-required="true">, so it has maxlength.
Facebook, I stand corrected, entering it again I just see this: <input
type="password" class="inputtext" name="pass" id="pass" tabindex="2" />. No
maxlength.
So you win, you got two out of three. :) I'll reopen this JIRA, I probably
won't be the one fixing it (or applying patches to same) due to more pressing
concerns, but it will be open unless somebody else closes or fixes it. At the
very least even if we keep the maxlength we should be able to print a text
stating that up to 20 characters is OK (like Yahoo! does).
