Answer 1

To get the slider value once the user has stopped moving the knob use change otherwise use input to receive updates as the knob is moved.

// Logs the value when the user has released the slider
$('.my-slider').on('change', valueUpdated);

// Logs the value while the user is moving the slider
$('.my-slider').on('input', valueUpdated);

function valueUpdated (e) {
    var val = $(e.element).val();
    console.log(val);
}
