Build ID: 20140212131424

Steps to reproduce:

Apply CSS on an <input type=range> so that its CSS width is larger than its CSS height. Live demo: http://jsfiddle.net/simevidas/8v2LD/


Actual results:

Firefox will not render the form field vertically.


Expected results:

Firefox should render the field vertically. See code example in HTML 5.1 spec here: http://www.w3.org/html/wg/drafts/html/master/forms.html#range-state-%28type=range%29. While this is not mandated by the spec, Opera's Presto engine has implemented this behavior (see screenshot), so I'm suggesting this for Firefox.
My mistake: I meant to say "so that its CSS height is larger than its CSS width".

Maybe it's been rejected, see bug 840820 comment 14 and bug 833742 comment 4.
If this gets addressed, the docs for the range input on MDN need to be revised to say so. Adding dev-doc-needed keyword.
