## Slider

- Basics
- Options
- Methods
- Events

The slider plugin has the following options:

`disabled` string

  default: false

  Sets the default state of the slider to disabled when "true".

      $('.selector').slider({ disabled: "true" });

`highlight` boolean

  default: false

  Sets an active state fill on the track from the left edge to the slider handle when set to "true".

      $('.selector').slider({ highlight: "true" });

`initSelector` CSS selector string

  default: "input[type='range'], :jqmData(type='range'), :jqmData(role='slider')"

  This is used to define the selectors (element types, data roles, etc.) that will automatically be initialized as sliders. To change which elements are initialized, bind this option to the mobileinit event:

      $( document ).bind( "mobileinit", function(){
         $.mobile.slider.prototype.options.initSelector = ".myslider";
      });

`mini` boolean

  default: false

  Sets the size of the element to a more compact, mini version. This option is also exposed as a data attribute: `data-mini="true"`

      $('.selector').slider({ mini: "true" });

`theme` string

  default: null, inherited from parent

  Sets the color scheme (swatch) for all instances of this widget. It accepts a single letter from a-z that maps to the swatches included in your theme. By default, it will inherit the same swatch color as its parent container if not explicitly set. This option is also exposed as a data attribute: `data-theme="a"`

      $('.selector').slider({ theme: "a" });

`trackTheme` string

  default: null, inherited from parent

  Sets the color scheme (swatch) for the slider's track, specifically. It accepts a single letter from a-z that maps to the swatches included in your theme.

      $('.selector').slider({ trackTheme: "a" });

  This option can be overridden in the markup by assigning a data attribute to the input, e.g. `data-track-theme="a"`.
