How to get value from jQuery UI slider?

Question

I am working on http://gamercity.info/ymusic/. And I am using UI slider as seek bar. While the video is played I want to invoke a seekTo(seconds) function if user clicked anywhere on the seek bar. How to get new value of seconds after click event?

Answer 1

To read slider value/percentage value at anytime:

var val = $('#slider').slider("option", "value"); 

Answer 2

$('#slider').slider({     change: function(event, ui) {          alert(ui.value);      }  });​
