Howdy Gareth,

Thanks for the quick response - I can see where the confusion might
arise regarding "span", but I'm actually using the script.aulo.us
terminology... as far as I know.

When I say "span" with respect to the Slider control I'm talking about
the spans feature already supported by it - see
http://www.aldenta.com/examples/script.aculo.us/slider-two-colored.html
for an example.

The parameter name used when creating the Slider is 'spans', for
example:

-----
        <div id="track" style="width:500px;background-
color:#888;height:20px;position:relative;z-index:0;">
            <div id="lfthandle" style="background-
color:#000;position:absolute;cursor:col-resize;width:5px;height:20px;z-
index:2;"></div>
            <div id="colorbar" style="background-
color:#F00;position:absolute;z-index:1;">&nbsp</div>
            <div id="rgthandle" style="background-
color:#000;position:absolute;cursor:col-resize;width:5px;height:20px;z-
index:2;"></div>
        </div>

     var slider = new Control.Slider(
          ['lfthandle','rgthandle'],
               'track',
                    {
                        range: $R(0,20),
                        values:
[0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20],
                        sliderValue:[5,15],
                        restricted:true,
=====>            spans:['colorbar'],
                        onSlide: function(v) { updateLables(v); },
                        onChange: function(v) { updateLables(v); }
                    }
                );

As you can see, this is not the HTML 'span' tag, but a Javascript
parameter.

Also, if I understand your reply correctly it sounds as though you
might have read my message to mean I'm having a problem with the
Slider - I'm not. It works perfectly, I've just added some
functionality to the slider.js code so that it does what I need it to
do.

I'm mainly wondering if there is somewhere I can put this updated
version so that someone can see if it's worth incorporating the
changes (or implementing it in a better way) into a script.aculo.us
release in the future. If not, I don't really care; I just figured
others might find it useful.

Thanks!

Andrew
