Class YAHOO.widget.DualSlider - uses YAHOO.util.EventProvider

A slider with two thumbs, one that represents the min value and the other the max. Actually a composition of two sliders, both with the same background. The constraints for each slider are adjusted dynamically so that the min value of the max slider is equal or greater to the current value of the min slider, and the max value of the min slider is the current value of the max slider. Constructor assumes both thumbs are positioned absolutely at the 0 mark on the background.
