<div>
<pre>When a form is submitted, text from a textarea element that contains "LF" (\n) as line terminators, is transformed: LF is replaced with CRLF (\r\n). It can be extremely annoying when maxlength is specified for a textarea. Imagine that maxlength is set to 100. Text contains exactly 100 symbols and has 2 lines (\n as terminator). Browser checks for maxlength, finds that it is OK, submits the form. But the actual _submitted_ value contains \r\n as terminator, so it is 101 chars. Server-side validation rejects it. We observed the same behavior on Windows as well as on Linux.</pre>
