<p>Tickets Sold: </p>
<meter low="40" high="150" min="0" max="200" value="120" title="Tickets">120 Tickets Sold</meter>
The above example demonstrates usage of the <meter>
element.
The <meter>
element represents a scalar measurement within a known range, or a fractional value. Examples of usage could include the amount of disk usage, the relevance of a query result to the user's search term, the amount of money raised in a fundraiser, or the fraction of a voting population to have selected a particular candidate.
The <meter>
element should not be used to represent progress. For measuring progress, use the <progress>
element.
Also, the <meter>
element should not be used to represent a scalar value of arbitrary range. For example, it should not be used to indicate a height unless there's a known maximum height.
The <meter>
element accepts the following attributes (as well as the global HTML attributes):
value
min
max
low
high
optimum
