position property

Returns the quotient of value/max when the value attribute is set (determinate progress bar), or -1 when the value attribute is missing (indeterminate progress bar).

This property is read-only.

 

Syntax

HRESULT get_position(
  [out] float *fValue
);

Property values

Type: float

If determinate, returns the result of the current value divided by the maximum value, otherwise -1.

Standards information

Remarks

When the value attribute is omitted from a progress element, the element is indeterminate. The progress element shows activity, but not how much progress has actually been made.

If the value attribute is used without a max value, the range is from 0 to 1.

The following example displays the current value of the IHTMLProgressElement::position property when the progress bar is changed.
