When i set the MaxTextLength property to 200 and type 200 characters i get a alert message telling the limit is 200 Characters long(the results are different in various browsers)

 

Firefox if off by like 2 characters, it will allow like 148 characters

 

Chrome is off by 1 character so only 149 allow

 

IE 8/9 Works fine, however some some reason if i change my view mode(from normal to HTML and back to normal) it adds a space at the end

 

can we get a fix for this
