Question: I am currently using the Twitter [bootstrap-slider](http://www.eyecon.ro/bootstrap-slider/) library, and have been trying to figure out how to change the max value after the slider has been initialized. This question on how to [retrieve the value](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/15736694/how-to-get-the-value-of-the-slider-bootstrap) was of some help, but I still cannot find the exact method to call. Here's what I have been trying so far:

JS:

```
$('#slider').slider({
    max: 100
});
$('#slider').slider({
    max: 200
});
console.log($('#slider').data('slider').max)

```

Console:

```
100

```

Setting the `$('#slider').data('slider').max` value directly also does not change the range of the slider itself, even thought the value has changed. Any help on setting the max value or re-initializing the slider would be much appreciated!!

Answer: 
I struggled getting this to work with various examples and eventually sorted it with this syntax, which I added into my function where needed. 

```
strMin=3;
strMax=5;

$("#myslider").data('slider').min=strMin;

$("#myslider").data('slider').max=strMax;

$("#myslider").data('slider').value="[" + strMin + "," + strMax + "]";

$("#myslider").data('slider').setValue([strMin,strMax],true);

```
```
$slider = $('#slider');

// Apply max to redraw slider
$slider.slider({ max: value });

```
