Grammar correction.
"it's very limited" -> "it's very limiting" (better English)

For instance, for the test case, I used INPUT and SIZE=15 for each of these arguments, well, in real world, I may need some of them to be INPUT and some of them checkbox or even date for HTML5 and even for the same INPUT type, some with SIZE of 15 while a few may need to be 60 something.  This type of function and its argument call would not suffice to solve problem at hand.
