Fails to init if polyfill: false is not specified #177

Must be initialized with at least

{ polyfill: false }

for this to work (Chrome 45, Firefox 40). If you supply no arguments to .rangeslider() it fails silently. This should be documented somewhere.

I can confirm this issue. Used some time to debug it because there's no error returned as mentioned.

Confirmed this is an issue as well

Hey guys :)

rangeslider.js is developed to be a polyfill for the <input type="range>" element. Which means if the browser has no support for the element rangeslider.js provides the functionality you expect. But of course you could also use it in browsers which support the <input type="range>" element by setting { polyfill: false }.

I hope this makes it a bit more clear for you. If you think it's confusing to understand and have a suggestion to make it better to understand in the docs feel free to make a pr for that or just comment right here.

:v:

Closing because of no feedback...

Apologies, I just saw this again. The clarification you provided above was perfect. For me, I think the issue is more making that clear in the usage notes. I specifically needed a custom styled rangeslider, but since I was using a browser that supported it, nothing was rendering.

More a point of documentation than it being incorrect. Sorry for the confusion. And thanks for taking the time to review this!
