The "range" tag (actually a slider) in HTML 5 adds a ver useful HTML form control.
The tag format is:
<range name="name for the HTML DOM"
id="optional id for the DOM" max="maximum value"
min="minimum value"
value="optional initial value when the page loads"
step="change in the range value with each mouse movement
default step value is one"
step may be a real number (i.e., contain a decimal point, e.g., 0.25)
if the value of "min" is contains a real number (e.g., 1.5)
