Use ARIA markup and JavaScript to support text values or multi-range selection.

Accessibility
Last modified:
- Avoid using where accurate selection is required --- consider mobile/touch and keyboard users.
- Avoid large ranges, especially without stepped intervals.
- Do not use
input[type=range]
for representing text values. Instead use the ARIAslider
role andaria-valuetext
.
Rationale
Last modified:
Use for numeric values in a range for users to select from.
Use for actions that take immediate effect.
For forms that require a submit action to confirm and send data, consider using radio buttons from Control input.
Use the step
attribute to add equally-sized intervals limiting the number of selectable options. The default step
value is 1
.
For example: in a range of 0–100, there are 100 options to select from. Setting step="10"
limits the number of options from 100 to 10.
Steps can be visually displayed using the --ticked
Range slider variant.
Set the desired number of steps using the data-bc-range-slider-ticks
data attribute. It visually supports 3–10 steps.
