Sliding fun comes to Nestoria

Nestoria fans, once again we take a step forward on the long path of making your search for homes to buy and rent in the UK as simple as possible. Today we rolled out ’sliders’ or filters that make it simple to refine your property search.

Let’s say for example you want to find a 1 bedroom in Stoke Newington between £175 and £225 a week as pictured here:

Well, no worries, just search for property to rent in Stoke Newington and a few quick slips of the mouse later your filters are set, you press “Refine Your Search” and you’re presented with a tasty array of relevant and fresh flats just waiting for you to move in. Next thing you know, you’re calling your friends and distant acquaintances begging them to help you drag your old couch down four flights of stairs into your new luxury Stoke Newington abode. It’s that easy.

Some technical notes: First of all, big thanks to the gang over at MooTools for making this so easy. We dropped their library in and it worked like a charm right away. We can’t recommend it enough. The label says MooTools is a compact, modular, Object-Oriented javascript framework designed to make writing extensible and compatible code easier and faster, and they delivered on that promise.

Secondly, though we have made every effort to test this new feature across a wide variety of browsers and platforms, do please let us know if you have any issues.

Okay, enough blog reading, go start sliding.

    Hi Richard,

    once you move the map, the “Refine Your Seach” button becomes clickable. It seems this isn’t clear enough though. Any suggestions about how we could make it more obvious?

    Thanks for your input.
