jQuery UI slider extension that enhances range capabilities

I'm going to provide you with the code that makes it possible to set bounds to range slider handles (minimum and maximum) and some more sugar along with it.

I needed to create a range slider that is a bit smarter than the one provided by jQuery UI library that only allows to set minimum and maximum values for the whole slider, but I needed to set a few things more. I had to provide a range slider that would allow users to select time range between midnight and midday the next day (36 hours all together). These were my requirements:

• Lower handle can only move to midnight the next day (so it can move between 00:00 and 1d 00:00) - this simply means that time range must start today
• Selected range must be at least 1 hour wide
• Selected range can't be wider than 24 hours all together

These were my requirements and although I like jQuery UI plugins/widgets and even though it comes with a slider it doesn't work as expected. I could of course put it all in my slide handler, but tha wouldn't be reusable and it would also not allow me to do some additional things I implemented along. Want to know which ones?
