I’m trying to implement a jQuery slider with increments. I’ve gone from, the actual project page, to a test page of the project with just the slider, to just the slider. In all cases I’ve been unable to get the handle to move. It also seems to have a width of 1px or similar.

My code is as follows,

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html>
    <head>
        <title>jQuery slider</title>

        <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/ui-lightness/jquery-ui-1.8.custom.css" type="text/css" media="screen" charset="utf-8" />

        <script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery-1.4.2.min.js"></script>
        <script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery-ui-1.8.custom.min.js"></script>

        <script type="text/javascript">
            $(function() {
                $("#slider").slider();
            });
        </script>

    </head>
    <body>
        <div id="slider"></div>
    </body>
</html>

I’m sure there is something very simple at fault here, but I really cannot see it for the life of me. The custom part of my download, was just clicking the ‘select all components’.

    I tried your exact code in a .html file…only replacing your includes with:

    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" href="/css/ui-lightness/jquery-ui-1.7.2.bluetie.css" /> 
<script type="text/javascript" src="/js/jquery-1.3.2.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/js/jquery-ui-1.7.2.custom.min.js"></script>

    …and it worked…slider across the entire screen…easily movable…

    non of my files were modified from what I got off the jquery site….

    If you are not getting a javascript error,…my guess is that your .css file isn’t being included.

    Hope this helps,
    Andrew
