From the documentation for TextBox.MaxLength:

"This property is only applicable when the TextMode property is set to
TextBoxMode.SingleLine or TextBoxMode.Password."

Look again.

The textbox can be rendered in the html as either an input tag or a
textarea tag. The input tag does have a maxlength property, the textarea
doesn't. If you use TextBoxMode.Multiline it will be rendered as a
textarea tag, and does not support MaxLength.
