hi,

take a look at [http://www.bandsintown.com/](http://www.bandsintown.com/)

On the left side they got a data-range bar which you can specify from  
the left to the right. I am looking for this func. for my new site. Has  
anyone an idea which ajax-framework (tutorials) this supports…

Thanks…remco

That is slick. I’m curious how that was done as well.

You could do something similar with [script.aculo.us](http://script.aculo.us). They have tools  
that extent prototype.  
One such tool is their slider tool.  
[http://wiki.script.aculo.us/scriptaculous/show/SliderDemo](http://wiki.script.aculo.us/scriptaculous/show/SliderDemo)

You can make the sliders look slick by placing background images in  
the appropriate

 elements, which is what Bandsintown has done.
