    <title>Details of Usage</title>
    <para><emphasis role="bold">
        <property>&lt;rich:inputNumberSlider&gt;</property>
      </emphasis> is used to facilitate your data input with rich UI Controls.</para>
    <para>Here is the simplest variant of a slider definition with
          <emphasis><property>&quot;minValue&quot;</property>,</emphasis>
      <emphasis>
        <property>&quot;maxValue&quot;</property>
      </emphasis> and <emphasis>
        <property>&quot;step&quot;</property>
      </emphasis> (on default = &quot;1&quot;) attributes, which define the beginning and
      the end of a numerical area and a <property>slider</property> property step.</para>


    <para>
      <emphasis role="bold">Example:</emphasis>
    </para>
    <programlisting role="XML"><![CDATA[<rich:inputNumberSlider></rich:inputNumberSlider>]]></programlisting>

    <para>It generates on a page:</para>
    <figure>
      <title>Generated <emphasis role="bold"><property>&lt;rich:InputNumberSlider&gt;</property></emphasis></title>
      <mediaobject>
        <imageobject>
          <imagedata fileref="images/inputNumberSlider2.png"/>

    <para> Using <emphasis>
        <property>&quot;showInput&quot;</property>
      </emphasis> (default is true) and <emphasis>
        <property>&quot;enableManualInput&quot;</property>
      </emphasis> (default value is true) attributes, it&apos;s possible to output the input
      area near the slider, and make it read-only or editable.</para>
    <para>To remove input area use <emphasis>
        <property>&quot;showInput=&quot;false&quot;</property>
      </emphasis>:</para>

    <para>
      <emphasis role="bold">Example:</emphasis>
    </para>
    <programlisting role="XML"><![CDATA[<rich:inputNumberSlider minValue="1"  maxValue="100" showInput="false"/>]]></programlisting>
    <para>It looks at page like:</para>
    <figure>

        </imageobject>
      </mediaobject>
    </figure>
    <para>It&apos;s also possible to switch off displaying of &quot;boundary
      values&quot; and a toolTip showing on a handle drawing. This could be performed with the
      help of the component defined attributes: <emphasis>
        <property>&quot;showBoundaryValues&quot;</property>
      </emphasis> which is responsible for &quot;boundary values&quot; displaying (default
      is true) and <emphasis>
        <property>&quot;showToolTip&quot;</property>
      </emphasis> which is responsible for tooltTip displaying (default is true).</para>

    <para>Moreover, to add e.g. some JavaScript effects, events defined on it are used.</para>
    <itemizedlist>
      <listitem><para> onchange </para></listitem>
      <listitem><para> onmouseover </para></listitem>
      <listitem><para> onclick </para></listitem>
      <listitem><para> onfocus </para></listitem>
      <listitem><para> onmouseout </para></listitem>
      <listitem><para> etc. </para></listitem>
    </itemizedlist>
    <para>
      The <emphasis>
        <property>&quot;label&quot;</property>
      </emphasis> attribute is a generic attribute.
      The <emphasis>
        <property>&quot;label&quot;</property>
      </emphasis> attribute provides an association between a component, and the message that the component (indirectly) produced.  
      This attribute defines the parameters of localized error and informational messages that
      occur as a result of conversion, validation, or other application actions during the request
      processing lifecycle. With the help of this attribute you can  replace the
      last parameter substitution token shown in the messages. For example, {1} for “DoubleRangeValidator.MAXIMUM”, {2}
      for “ShortConverter.SHORT”.

    <para>In order to redefine styles for all <emphasis role="bold">

    </emphasis> components on a page using CSS, it&apos;s enough to create classes with the
