## Browser Support

The max attribute is supported in Internet Explorer 10, Opera, Chrome, and Safari.

Note: The max attribute of the <input> tag is not supported in Internet Explorer 9 and earlier versions, or in Firefox.

Note: The max attribute will not work for dates and time in Internet Explorer 10, since IE 10 does not support these input types.

## Definition and Usage

The max attribute specifies the maximum value for an <input> element.

Tip: Use the max attribute together with the min attribute to create a range of legal values.

Note: The max and min attributes works with the following input types: number, range, date, datetime, datetime-local, month, time and week.

## Differences Between HTML 4.01 and HTML5

The max attribute is new in HTML5.
