I am trying to fire an event when a user slides the slider and the value is changed when the sliding stops. As per the jQuery docs, the change
event would be ideal for this case. So I am trying this out:
<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8" />
<title>jQuery UI Slider - Default functionality</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://code.jquery.com/ui/1.10.2/themes/smoothness/jquery-ui.css" />
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.9.1.js"></script>
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/ui/1.10.2/jquery-ui.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/resources/demos/style.css" />
<script>
$(function() {
$( "#slider" ).slider({
change:function() { alert("foo"); }
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="slider"></div>
</body>
</html>
However, I observe that when I drag the slider to the right and again drag it back to the starting point (the initial position of the slider at page-load), the alert still fires. Is this a jQuery bug? If no, how do I fix this?
$(function() {
$("#slider").slider();
var startPos = $("#slider").slider("value");,
endPos = '';
$("#slider").on("slidestop", function(event, ui) {
endPos = ui.value;
if (startPos != endPos) {
// do stuff
}
startPos = endPos;
});
});
Just try.
$(function() {
$("#slider").slider({
slide: function(event, ui) {
// use ui.value to get a number
// do your functions
}
});
});
