:in-range

The :in-range CSS pseudo-class represents an <input> element whose current value is within the range limits specified by the min and max attributes.

/* Selects any <input>, but only when it has a range
   specified, and its value is inside that range */
input:in-range {
  background-color: rgba(0, 255, 0, 0.25);
}

This pseudo-class is useful for giving the user a visual indication that a field's current value is within the permitted limits.
