The path should be exactly 100 pixels tall. The best way to do this is to set the grid spacing to 10 pixels and use snap to grid to make the path exact. The registration point of the path should be exactly at its top. Drag a copy of this onto the main stage and name this instance "path".Now create another Movie clip and name it slider, in this movie clip create a button which will be the slider itself. Select the button, we will add some actionscript to it  This code allows the slider to be dragged but its travel is restricted to to the boundaries of the path.
