How to Create a Reading Position Indicator with HTML5

Posted · Category: License Free, Tools

There are some websites that have some kind of an indicator to display the current reading position (how much you have “read”, depending on how far you have scrolled down an article). Generally, such indicators are used on blog posts or long form articles and help readers understand how far they are from finishing the article.

CSS-Tricks has shared an article: Reading Position Indicator, uses a horizontal progress bar as the indicator. But instead of using traditional div/span(s) and some non-linear math to build the indicator, we will use the HTML5 progress element. It is much more semantically accurate and suitable to represent this information, and that too with no complex calculations involved.
