To have a slidebar in HTML5, we may use range input. i.e.
<input type="range" min="0" max='5' value="0" step="1" >
The default behavior is to have minimum value on the left side and maximum value on the right side. Is there a way I can put the maximum value on the left side instead?
I know I can do that with Javascript. Is there a way to do that with HTML alone?
Reply to "possible duplicate question":
That question accept javascript solution, and I am asking for HTML only solution. I think it is obvious that it is not a duplication?
The <input type="range"> defines a control for entering a number whose exact value is not important (like a slider control). Default range is 0 to 100. However, you can set restrictions on what numbers are accepted with the attributes below. Tip: Always add the <label> tag for best accessibility practices!
To style the range input with CSS you'll need to apply styles to two pseudo-elements: ::-webkit-slider-thumb and ::-webkit-slider-runnable-track . Find out how you can apply custom styling and make the range input more functional and appealing. Contents of the article: CSS selectors for the range input.
min (The lowest accepted value in the range) max (The highest accepted value in the range) step (The increment/decrement step value default is 1) value (The starting or default value of the slider)
This might do the trick: setting the direction of the input to be right to left on the CSS
#reversedRange {
direction: rtl
}
See sample code below:
PS the javascript/jquery code is only to illustrate the values changing and it's not needed. Only the CSS and the id
attribute on the input
element
Updated: based on comments by @MCTaylor17 (thanks)
$(function() {
$("#rangeValue").text($("#reversedRange").val());
$("#reversedRange").on('change input', function() {
$("#rangeValue").text($(this).val());
});
});
#reversedRange {
direction: rtl
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
Max<input type="range" min="0" max='5' value="0" step="1" id="reversedRange">Min
<div>value: <span id="rangeValue"></span>
</div>
