I am looking for slider with a submit button but which nevertheless shows the current slider value, so a user can know what would be submitted. Perhaps somebody did this already ?  
It would be for this notebook:

> **[Sea Level 3D: Past, Present (and Future?)](https://observablehq.com/d/8c0b7dd93fa7476b)**
>
> An Observable notebook by Andreas Plesch.

I added a few lines to Jeremy’s inputs bazaar to take advantage of the change event for range/submit forms:

> **[InputsAP](https://observablehq.com/@andreasplesch/inputsap)**

It now updates the output display value while not triggering an input event. I am sure there is a more elegant solution than special casing this form but it is functional.
