The :in-range CSS pseudo-class represents an <input> element whose current value is within the range limits specified by the min and max attributes.
/* Selects any <input>, but only when it has a range
specified, and its value is inside that range */
input:in-range {
background-color: rgba(0, 255, 0, 0.25);
}
This pseudo-class is useful for giving the user a visual indication that a field's current value is within the permitted limits.
Note: This pseudo-class only applies to elements that have (and can take) a range limitation. In the absence of such a limitation, the element can neither be "in-range" nor "out-of-range."
