<div>
<pre>Hard carriage returns are being counted as 2 characters against the maxlength attribute. For example, if you have a textarea with a maxlength="20" and type "0123" and press enter, copy all, and paste as much as you can you'd expect the field to contain:
0123(newline)
0123(newline)
0123(newline)
0123(newline)
But what you get is
0123(newline)
0123(newline)
0123(newline)
01
I've added the (newline) to clarify the newline characters.
Each newline is being treated as a CR+LF instead of just a LF in the DOM.
This seems to be the same as ID 74686, which is marked as fixed, but still appears to be broken.</pre>
