How to display a range input slider vertically

Question

I would like to display an  lt input type  range    gt  slider control vertically   I m only concerned with browsers that support the range slider control   I ve found some comments and references that seem to indicate that setting the height greater than the width will cause the browser to change the orientation automatically  but in my testing  that only works in Opera used to work in Opera  but not anymore   How can I orient an HTML5 range slider vertically

Without changing the position to absolute, see below. This supports all recent browsers as well.

_x000D_

.vranger {_x000D_
  margin-top: 50px;_x000D_
   transform: rotate(270deg);_x000D_
  -moz-transform: rotate(270deg); /*do same for other browsers if required*/_x000D_
}

_x000D_

<input type="range" class="vranger"/>

_x000D_

for very old browsers, you can use -sand-transform: rotate(10deg); from CSS sandpaper

or use

prefix selector such as -ms-transform: rotate(270deg); for IE9

First  set height greater than width   In theory  this is all you should need  The HTML5 Spec suggests as much       the UA determined the orientation of the control from the ratio of the style-sheet-specified height and width properties   Opera had it implemented this way  but Opera is now using WebKit Blink   As of today  no browser implements a vertical slider based solely on height being greater than width  Regardless  setting height greater than width is needed to get the layout right between browsers   Applying left and right padding will also help with layout and positioning  For Chrome  use -webkit-appearance  slider-vertical  For IE  use writing-mode  bt-lr  For Firefox  add an orient  quot vertical quot  attribute to the html  Pity that they did it this way   Visual styles should be controlled via CSS  not HTML   x000D   x000D  input type range  orient vertical        writing-mode  bt-lr     IE        -webkit-appearance  slider-vertical     WebKit        width  8px      height  175px      padding  0 5px    x000D   lt input type  range  orient  vertical    gt  x000D   x000D   x000D    Disclaimers  This solution is based on current browser implementations of as yet undefined or unfinalized CSS properties   If you intend to use it in your code  be prepared to make code adjustments as newer browser versions are released and w3c recommendations are completed  MDN contains an explicit warning against using -webkit-appearance on the web   Do not use this property on Web sites  not only is it non-standard  but its behavior change from one browser to another  Even the keyword none has not the same behavior on each form element on different browsers  and some doesn t support it at all   The caption for the vertical slider demo in the IE documentation erroneously indicates that setting height greater than width will display a range slider vertically  but this does not work  In the code section  it plainly does not set height or width  and instead uses writing-mode   The writing-mode property  as implemented by IE  is very robust   Sadly  the values defined in the current working draft of the spec as of this writing  are much more limited   Should future versions of IE drop support of bt-lr in favor of the currently proposed vertical-lr  which would be the equivalent of tb-lr   the slider would display upside down   Most likely  future versions would extend the writing-mode to accept new values rather than drop support for existing values   But  it s good to know what you are dealing with

You can do this with css transforms  though be careful with container height width  Also you may need to position it lower    x000D   x000D  input type  range     x000D     position  absolute  x000D     top  40   x000D     transform  rotate 270deg   x000D    x000D   lt input type  range   gt  x000D   x000D   x000D      or the 3d transform equivalent   input type  range        transform  rotateZ 270deg       You can also use this to switch the direction of the slide by setting it to 180deg or 90deg for horizontal or vertical respectively

Its very simple  I had implemented using -webkit-appearance  slider-vertical  It worked in chorme  Firefox  Edge  lt input type  quot range quot  gt   input type range       writing-mode  bt-lr     IE        -webkit-appearance  slider-vertical     WebKit        width  50px      height  200px      padding  0 24px      outline  none      background transparent
