Can the background color of an HTML meter be customized?
I noticed that by default, it has a green background.
Is there a way to change this green background to a different color?
I attempted using the style attribute with a red background color, but it still remained green.
<meter style="background-color:red;" min="0" low="40" high="95" max="100" value="65">
</meter>
meter::-webkit-meter-optimum-value {
background: red;
}
meter::-moz-meter-bar { /* Firefox Pseudo Class */
background: red;
}<meter min="0" low="40" high="95" max="100" value="65">
</meter>meter::-webkit-meter-optimum-value {
background: blue; /* Purple */
}<meter min="0" low="40" high="95" max="100" value="65" col>
</meter>Customizing meters for Chrome:
/*meter */
meter::-webkit-meter-bar {background: #e6e6e9;} /*set background color of the bar*/
meter::-webkit-meter-optimum-value {background: green;}
meter::-webkit-meter-suboptimum-value{background:orange;}
meter::-webkit-meter-even-less-good-value{background:red;}
Adjusting meter styles for Firefox:
/*meter */
/*bar with single color value*/
meter::-moz-meter-bar {background: red;} /* define color of the bar*/
/* bar with varying colors based on thresholds*/
/* between "low" and "high" thresholds*/
meter::-moz-meter-optimum-value {background: lightgreen;}
/*below "low" threshold or above "high" threshold*/
meter::-moz-meter-suboptimum-value{background:gold;}
To apply styling to the meter value, you must first select it and then customize its appearance accordingly. For additional information and examples, please visit this link.
meter::-webkit-meter-optimum-value {
box-shadow: 0 5px 5px -5px #999 inset;
background-image: linear-gradient(
90deg,
#8bcf69 5%,
#e6d450 5%,
#e6d450 15%,
#f28f68 15%,
#f28f68 55%,
#cf82bf 55%,
#cf82bf 95%,
#719fd1 95%,
#719fd1 100%
);
background-size: 100% 100%;
}<meter value="0.6"></meter><progress min="0" low="40" high="95" max="100" value="65">
</progress>
progress::-webkit-progress-value {
background: blue; /* Red */

I recently developed a personalized meter rather than utilizing the standard HTML meter for more customization options. Below is an example of what I devised. You can access the complete package at Github.
var inlineCSS = function(id, attribute, value) {
switch (attribute) {
/* layer 1 attributes */
case 'meter-color':
$(id)[0].style.backgroundColor = value;
$(id)[0].style.backgroundImage = "none";
break;
case 'meter-length':
var lengthArr = ["super-long", "x-long", "long", "normal", "short", "x-short", "super-short"];
var lengthSizes = ["95%", "80%", "65%", "50%", "35%", "20%", "5%"];
if (jQuery.inArray(value, lengthArr) !== -1) {
$(id)[0].style.width = lengthSizes[jQuery.inArray(value, lengthArr)];
} else {
$(id)[0].style.width = value;
}
break;
case 'meter-thickness':
var heightArr = ["super-thick", "x-thick", "thick", "thin", "x-thin", "super-thin"];
var heightSizes = [30 * 1.75, 30 * 1.5, 30 * 1.25, 30 * 0.75, 30 * 0.5, 30 * 0.25];
if (jQuery.inArray(value, heightArr) !== -1) {
$(id)[0].style.height = heightSizes[jQuery.inArray(value, heightArr)] + "px";
}
break;
case 'meter-shadow':
$(id)...
$(document).ready(function() {
$(".meter > span").each(function() {
$(this).data("origWidth", ($(this).width() / $(this).parent().width()) * 100)
.width(0)
.animate({
width: $(this).data("origWidth") + "%"
}, 3600);
});
$(".meter").each(function() {
/**
* options : meter options passed by data-options attribute
* selector : value used to reference html element for meter update
*/
var options = $(this).data("options");
var selector = "div#" + $(this).attr("id") + ".meter";
for (var x in options) {
if (jQuery.inArray(x, ["meter-color", "meter-length", "meter-thickness", "meter-shadow"]) !== -1) {
inlineCSS(selector, x, options[x]);
} else
if (jQuery.inArray(x, ["candystripe-color", "animation-speed"]) !== -1) {
inlineCSS(selector + " > span", x, options[x]);
} else
if (jQuery.inArray(x, ["reveal-width"]) !== -1) {
inlineCSS(selector + " > span > span", x, options[x]);
} else
if (jQuery.inArray(x, ["font-size", "font-color"]) !== -1) {
inlineCSS(selector + " > span > span > span", x, options[x]);
} else {
continue;
}
}
});
});I created a personalized meter that offers more flexibility than the standard tag with just a few lines of code. This custom meter is compatible with all browsers and allows for easy customization.
function updateMeterValue(val){
//customize colors and conditions as needed
let color = val < 33 ? "red" : val < 66 ? "orange" : "green"
document.getElementById('custom-meter').style = `width:${val}%;background:${color};`
}
updateMeterValue(document.getElementById('meter-value').value) //initialize with a default value.custom-meter-container{
background: #000;
overflow: hidden;
width: 80px;
height: 12px;
border: 1px solid #8F8F9D;
border-radius: 6px;
box-sizing: border-box;
}
#custom-meter{
height: 100%;
}<div class="custom-meter-container">
<div id="custom-meter"></div>
</div>
