Is there an HTML attribute/event handler for 'on mouse release'?

Question

I need a function to be called when the slider knob has been released. onchange changes the value while I'm changing it. Is there a solution for this like

<input type="range" min="0" max="1000" onrelease="callfunction()">

Answer 1

Use the mouseup event on desktop browsers and the touchend event on mobile phones for handling this user interaction.

<input type="range" min="0" max="1" 
       onmouseup="callfunction()" 
       ontouchend="callfunction()">

I would recommend to check caniuse.com for browser support.

Known issues (as of 2019-03-25):

• IE10 & 11 fire the "change" event instead of "input" on mousemove.
• IE10 & 11 have some bugs related to the step value.
