jQuery.val not working on range input?
<input type="range" value="5,17" /> If I try to change the value with $('input').val('8,20'); it doesn't change... But on hidden inputs works: <input type="hidden" value="s" /> The HTML5 <input type="range" /> does only handle one value between min and max attribute - e.g.: <input type="range" min="1" max="10" value="5.3" step="0.1" /> $("input[type=range]").val(); // returns 5.3 $("input[type=range]").val(6); // sets value to 6 $("input[type=range]").val(); // returns 6 If you want to have the slide handle a min and a max value in one UI-input you could possibly use jQueryUI's slider: https:/
