Yes, that's nice. But something which runs server-side has no access to
the client end, except via the HTTP protocol (i.e. POST and GET
variables). To get client-side functionality like you want, you need
something which runs on the client.
And Jussist has the right idea - use JS to enhance the experience, but
don't force people to rely on it. Provide the slider for those with JS
enabled, and a text or select box for those who don't.
