Are there any text field guidelines for web pages?

I'm trying to find the does and don'ts for implementing text fields for web pages. Some examples I can think of are

1) Consider real time limiting length of a text field versus informing users of length restrictions on submitting a page

2) Handling of special characters e.g. $!^*!( etc.

3) Special validation of text fields for specific text field types e.g. email fields, phone number fields etc.

It would be great if there was a document that covers guidelines such as these.
