5,561 PointsHaving trouble reading this statement about changes in sliders.
Hi there,
Can someone please help me read this statement in plain English so I can better understand what is happening?
$("input[type=range]").on("input", changeColor); Here is how I understand it, please clarify it:
For the sliders, which are inputs with a type called range, when the event handler, "on" is activated (I don't know how it is activated), .......I got stuck. Please explain the statement as clearly as you can, so that I understand what is happening.
Thanks in advance!
