My problem is I can’t get this jQuery slider to start from .1 to 10 in .1 increments and end (stop) at 10. Would like to pull this off without jQuery UI or jQuery tools.

I plan to have the hidden input value updated using the slider position then a button that says “VOTE”.

I appreciate any help with this project. Thanks, Brandon.

I’m trying to limit the slider to only move inside the “slider_container” div.I can’t get the box to stop at the left and right?

$(function() {
    var sliderMouseDown = false;
    var count = 0;
    $("#slider").mousedown(function() {
        sliderMouseDown = true;
    });
    $(document).mousemove(function(evnt) {
        if (sliderMouseDown) {
            count = count + .1;
            $("#vote").html(count);
        }
    });
    $(document).mouseup(function() {
        if (sliderMouseDown)
        {
            $("#slider").focus();
            count = 0;
            sliderMouseDown = false;
        }
    });
});

var x1 = 0;
var drag = false;
$(document).ready(function(e){
$('#slider').mousedown(function(e){
e.preventDefault ();
x1 = e.pageX - parseInt($('#slider').css('left'));
drag = true;
})
$(document).mouseup(function(e){ drag = false; })
$(document).mousemove(function(e){ 
if(!drag) return
$('#slider').css('left',eval(e.pageX - x1)+'px')
})
