YUI date slider?

Question

Does anyone know about a YUI double-thumb slider that could be used for dates? I'd love to have a slider that lets a user select min/max date for a query. Each tick could be for the first day of the month. A user could then pick, for example, Jan 1, 2002 as a min and July 1, 2004 as a max.

dunno about a yui-based slider, but there's a date range slider for jquery by filament group:

they also have a pretty sweet date range selector box:

In YUI 2, there's a dual-thumb slider you could use as a foundation:

In YUI 3 (this is not exactly what you're looking for), Stephen Woods has contributed a nice date/time picker control:
