I am using an email input field in my webpage; the code looks like: <input type="email" id="email" name="email" size="80" maxlength="80" value="" required="required" /> When I run my page through the W3 HTML5 Validator, I get the following two errors: - Attribute maxlength is only allowed when the input type is e-mail, password, search, tel, text, or url. - Attribute required is only allowed when the input type is checkbox, date, datetime, datetime-local, e-mail, file, month, number, password, radio, search, tel, text, time, url, or week. It's an email input type, but the validator seems to reject it; the warnings don't seem to make sense.
