Introduction

Our 7th series of Free PSD layout around the web! Loading bar is serve as preloader to indicate how long the users have to wait. This interface element isn't a common web element in HTML and CSS web design, it's more common in flash website development as it needs to load all the assets.

With HTML and CSS websites, we can use it for:

  • Indicate file upload progress
  • A preloader (Yes, it's possible)
  • As a status indicator. Eg, total of donation/money accumulated

In case you've missed our previous series in PSD layout, you can visit them via the following links. We still have 2-3 series to go, I hope you will enjoy this post and stay tuned for more!

First you place the background PSD.

And then you slice the frontend bar into tiny slices (it all depends on your design/pattern, e.g. 3-10px wide per percent) and change the code so, that it extends the bar (so the graphic) to 100%.

Example: Let's say, 100% = 300px, so extend the 3px graphic (1%) to 300px (100%)

This one doesn't use images it's much easier to implement and looks pretty nice. Check the live Demo: http://ruwix.com/simple-javascript-html-css-slider-progress-bar/
