Slider (computing)
open-in-new
<h2 id="usage-with-progress-bars">Usage with progress bars</h2> <p>Sliders are also combined with <a href="/facts/Progress_bar/oG2cUxlq">progress bars</a> in the playback of <a href="/facts/Streaming_media/4rPhSq0Y">streaming media</a> over a network connection (e.g., YouTube videos) in order to show the content buffering position versus the playback position. This is done by superimposing a colored shaded area (progress bar) on top of the slider, indicating whether the user can "jump" forward or not. </p> <h2 id="external-links">External links</h2> <ul><li><a href="http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/examples/slider/index.html">Yahoo!
