RangeElementFactory
RangeElementFactory
EmbeddedRangeSlider A custom-built range slider, single or dual-handle, that replaces the native <input type="range"> for better keyboard and touch UX. Instantiated once per element by RangeElementFactory; the constructor moves the original input off-screen and renders the visible slider in its place.
