SLIDE WITH STYLE
================

The javascript for this module heavily borrows from the SliderField module
whose maintainers and contributors are gratefully acknowledged.

Focus and context of this module are different form SliderField, though.

While SliderField is about the data input and storage aspects of numeric fields,
Slide with Style is about search FILTERS for your fields, in particular
RANGE filters, for fields that are themselves NOT ranges, like numbers or list
fields.

You will see the widget pop up under the name "Slider" in the widget select
drop-down of fields of the number (integer, float, decimal) or list (text,
number) types. After you have selected it, you'll be given a number of options
to affect its appearance like orientation (horizontal or vertical) and whether
to show an edit field and/or value balloon next to the slider bar. You may
also choose a colour/styling scheme. When different slider widgets appear on
the same page they will share the same colour scheme.

When the widget is then used as a filter (e.g. in Views as an exposed filter or
in Views as a contextual filter UI via Views Global Filter), the slider
automatically becomes a RANGE slider with TWO sliding handles to set "from" and
"to" range values. If the edit field is configured to be displayed, it will be
read-only. For the widget to appear in Views as an exposed filter make sure the
box "Also employ Slide with Style widget in Views exposed filters" is ticked.
You'll find this box on the Select with Style configuration page,
admin/config/system/slide_with_style.

If the slider widget is chosen for a LIST field, make sure that when defining
the allowed values at admin/structure/types/manage/<content-type>/fields/<field>/field-settings,
the keys are consecutive integers, as the slider will assume a step size of 1
between the keys.

Example:

  1|Baby
  2|Toddler
  3|Child
  4|Teenager
  5|Adult
  6|Middle-aged
