jQuery UI consists of GUI widgets, visual effects, and themes implemented using jQuery, CSS, and HTML. jQuery UI is great for building UI interfaces for the webpages. jQueryUI provides us a slider control through the slider widget. Slider helps us to get a certain value using a given range. In this article, we will see how to animate a slider. The animate option when set to true will create an animation effect when you directly click at any point on the slider’s axis
Syntax:
$(".selector").slider(
{ animate: value }
);
Parameters: This option accepts three parameters as discussed below:
- boolean: If set to true, the slider will be animated. By default, the value is false
- string: The string value used to set the speed of the slider cursor. The available values are slow, normal, fast.
- number: The duration of the animation in milliseconds.
CDN Link: First, add jQuery UI scripts needed for your project.
<link href = “https://code.jquery.com/ui/1.10.4/themes/ui-lightness/jquery-ui.css” rel = “stylesheet”>
<script src = “https://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.2.js”></script>
<script src = “https://code.jquery.com/ui/1.10.4/jquery-ui.js”></script>
