5144	"""got an unexpected keyword argument 'max_length'"""	mikeh@…	Adrian Holovaty	"I'm using revision 5878 to start a new project.  I have this in my model:
{{{
#!python
    first_name=models.CharField(max_length=100)
    last_name=models.CharField(max_length=50)
}}}
And I have django.contrib.admin enabled.  When I use the Admin App to add a new object of that class, I get the following error::

If I comment out lines 46-67 in django/utils/maxlength.py and change my CharFields records to ""maxlength"" I can add a object but not view it.  But changing that file seems wrong."		closed	Contrib apps	dev		invalid	admin		Unreviewed	0	0	0	0	0	0
