Description
By default, all input elements have a 12px left-right padding:
textarea,
select,
input {
padding: 6px 12px;
...
}
For an <input type="range" ... this causes an issue (at least in Chrome 83) with incorrectly rendering the input:
Min value:
Mid value:
Max value:
Without the left-right padding, the input is rendered correctly.
