jquery slider discrete interval

[ayok]

Hi,

 

I'm new with jquery and still learning how jquery works.

 

Now I'm busy with the slider. It works great. However, I'm stuck with something. I need some sliders and one of the slider has discrete values. By default the step is 1, and we can change the step. For example: $( ".selector" ).slider({ step: 5 }); So the slider will snap on values of 0, 5, 10, 15, etc. However, i need descrete value, so instead of 0, 5, 10, I need the slider snap to discrete values like 0, 1, 3, 9, 14, 49, 96 etc.

 

I cannot get any answer about this on google nor in jquery site. Is there maybe anyone who has done this?

 

Thank you in advanced.

 

Regards,

Ayok

What do you mean by "discrete" values?

[ayok]

Sorry, for me it's a bit difficult to explain. I mean the values has different increment. Thus, 1, 2, 5, 10, 13, 56, etc.

Let me explain again.

With this code: $( ".selector" ).slider({ step: 5 }), we will achieve a slider with increment values of 5. So if we slide, the slider will snap to values of 5, 10, 15, 20 etc (multipled by 5). Instead, I want the slider snap into discrete values like 1,3,6,14,17,29, 88, 100, etc.

Oh I see what you mean, like random numbers instead of multiples? The problem with that is the plug-in has been written to use a pattern. You'd need to rewrite parts of the plug-in yourself, which definitely won't be easy if you're new to JavaScript.
