HTML <progress> style Attribute

A style attribute on a <progress> tag assigns a unique style to the element.

Its value is CSS that defines the appearance of the progress element.

Example

<div>Re-indexing... </div>

<progress style="width:200px; height:20px;" value="30" max="100"> 30% </progress>

Using style

The style attribute specifies the style, i.e. look and feel, of the <progress> element.

A style contains any number of CSS property/value pairs, separated by semicolons (;).

The style attribute overrides any other style that was defined in a <style> tag or an external CSS file.

This inline styling affects the current <progress> element only.

<progress style="CSS-styles">

  let toggle = () => {
    let element = document.getElementById("myprogress");

    if (element.style.width === "100px") {
       element.style.width = "200px";
    } else {
       element.style.width = "100px";
    }
  }
</script>

Code explanation

The style attribute assigns a width to the <progress> element.

Clicking the button calls JavaScript which changes the element width.
