<a href="https://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/wiki/Using_WAI-ARIA_range_attributes_for_range_widgets_such_as_progressbar,_scrollbar,_slider,_and_spinbutton#Example_1:_A_spinbutton">https://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/wiki/Using_WAI-ARIA_range_attributes_for_range_widgets_such_as_progressbar,_scrollbar,_slider,_and_spinbutton#Example_1:_A_spinbutton</a>

A widget with role spinbutton lets a user enter a value from within a given range. The spinbutton shows the current value and presents controls to allow the user to increase and decrease the value.

The maximum and minimum values are represented by aria-valuemax, aria-valuemin, and the current value by aria-valuenow.
-------------

If you used aria-valuenow it looks like this works. the value is being returned in this case</pre>
