HTML <input> Tag with the 'minlength' Attribute
<form name="myForm" action="/resources/html-forms-action.cfm">
<input minlength="5" name="myField">
<button>Submit</button>
</form>
The above example demonstrates usage of the <input>
element with the minlength
attribute.
The minlength
attribute allows you to restrict the length of the value that the user can input. Specifically, it allows you to specify a minimum number of characters that the user can input.
You can also use maxlength
to specify a maximum length.
Note that at the time of writing, the minlength
attribute was new to HTML and had very little browser support.
