Gradient Slider Control In Pure JavaScript – slider.js

Preview:

Description:

slider.js is a minimal JavaScript library to enhance and beautify the default range slider control with custom styles and extra functionality.

How to use it:

Create a regular range input on the page.

<input id="slide" type="range" min="10" max="100" value="62" oninput="displayValue(event)" />

Create an inline element to display the current value.

<span id="val"></span>

That’s it. You can also create controls to change the max/min values allowed to pick.

<div class="form">
  <div>
    <label for="min">Lower bound</label>
    <input type="number" id="min" onkeydown="checkPostiveInteger(event)" oninput="checkValidLimits()" placeholder="  < and != upper bound">
  </div>
  <div>
    <label for="max">Upper bound</label>
    <input type="number" id="max" onkeydown="checkPostiveInteger(event)" oninput="checkValidLimits()" placeholder="  > and != lower bound">
  </div>
  <button onclick="changeLimits()" id="limitButton" disabled>Apply limits</button>
</div>

Apply your own CSS styles to the slider control.
