customize the handler of input range - html

Question

When we use input range <input type="range", there is a handler which is moveable as how we handle it.
Now I need a help how to customize this handle, in this case I want to change the default handler with my own handler(image of button).
Thanks for the help
<input type='range'/>

Answer 1

Use the following to style the base:
input[type=range] {
-webkit-appearance: none; /* Hides the slider so that custom slider can be made */
width: 100%; /* Specific width is required for Firefox. */
}
input[type=range]::-webkit-slider-thumb {
-webkit-appearance: none;
}
input[type=range]:focus {
outline: none; /* Removes the blue border. You should probably do some kind of focus styling for accessibility reasons though. */
}
input[type=range]::-ms-track {
width: 100%;
cursor: pointer;
background: transparent; /* Hides the slider so custom styles can be added */
border-color: transparent;
color: transparent;
}
Use the following to style the thumb:
/* Special styling for WebKit/Blink */
input[type=range]::-webkit-slider-thumb {
-webkit-appearance: none;
border: 1px solid #000000;
height: 36px;
width: 16px;
border-radius: 3px;
background: #ffffff;
cursor: pointer;
margin-top: -14px; /* You need to specify a margin in Chrome, but in Firefox and IE it is automatic */
box-shadow: 1px 1px 1px #000000, 0px 0px 1px #0d0d0d; /* Add cool effects to your sliders! */
}
/* All the same stuff for Firefox */
input[type=range]::-moz-range-thumb {
box-shadow: 1px 1px 1px #000000, 0px 0px 1px #0d0d0d;
border: 1px solid #000000;
height: 36px;
width: 16px;
border-radius: 3px;
background: #ffffff;
cursor: pointer;
}
/* All the same stuff for IE */
input[type=range]::-ms-thumb {
box-shadow: 1px 1px 1px #000000, 0px 0px 1px #0d0d0d;
border: 1px solid #000000;
height: 36px;
width: 16px;
border-radius: 3px;
background: #ffffff;
cursor: pointer;
}
Snippet:
input[type=range] {
-webkit-appearance: none;
margin: 10px 0;
width: 100%;
}
input[type=range]:focus {
outline: none;
}
input[type=range]::-webkit-slider-runnable-track {
width: 100%;
height: 12.8px;
cursor: pointer;
animate: 0.2s;
box-shadow: 0px 0px 0px #000000, 0px 0px 0px #0d0d0d;
background: #ac51b5;
border-radius: 25px;
border: 0px solid #000101;
}
input[type=range]::-webkit-slider-thumb {
