Re: Sliders and MouseDown

I had tried that the other day using the sample on w3schools -
https://www.w3schools.com/howto/howto_js_rangeslider.asp

On a PC with firefox, I can hit escape to cancel the thumb drag. On chrome
and ie, I cannot cancel the drag.

There doesn't seem to be an area where the drag is canceled if I move
outside that area, so it doesn't work like the browser's page scroll widget
(but would be nice if it did).
