HTMLMeterElement: high property

Baseline Widely available

This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since ⁨November 2015⁩.

The high property of the HTMLMeterElement interface represents the high boundary of the <meter> element as a floating-point number. It reflects the element's high attribute, or the value of max if not defined. The value of high is clamped by the low and max values.

This property can also be set directly, for example to set a default value based on some condition.

Value

A number that is not less than HTMLMeterElement.low nor greater than HTMLMeterElement.max.

Examples

html

<label for="fuel">Current fuel level:</label>
<meter
  id="fuel"
  min="0"
  max="100"
  low="15"
  high="66"
  optimum="80"
  value="50"></meter>

const meterElement = document.getElementById("fuel");
console.log(meterElement.high); // 66
++meterElement.high;
console.log(meterElement.high); // 67
