Get HTML5 range value in Ruby on Rails form

Question

I am trying to change the standard Ruby on Rails form to let the user input a value with HTML5 range. I can't figure out how I should replace the standard "<%= f.text_field :W1 %>". I have a slider : ``` ``` Displaying value in : ``` 100 ``` Thanks to Ajax : ``` $("#slider1").change(function () { var newValue = $('#slider1').val(); $("#W1").html(newValue); }); ``` I can't find out where and how I should get the input value to set W1 ? EDIT : HTML5 range is range_field form herlper in Ruby. I'm still searching for the right implementation of it so any help would be appreciated

Accepted Answer
