4. The computer-implemented method of claim 3 , wherein the first side of the second sliding control comprises a portion of the sliding track on one side of the second sliding control and the second side of the second sliding control comprises a portion of the sliding track on the other side of the second sliding control.

5. The computer-implemented method of claim 4 , wherein the sliding track is configured to specify a value interval, wherein the first sliding control and the second sliding control are configured to select a value subinterval from the value interval.

6. The computer-implemented method of claim 5 , further comprising, after sliding the first sliding control to the second side of the second sliding control, determining, based on a location of the first sliding control on the sliding track and the location of the second sliding control on the sliding track, the value subinterval selected from the value interval.

7. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the first sliding control and the second sliding control are slider controls.

8. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the first sliding control and the second sliding control are sliding handle controls configured to select a page element displayed on a page on which the first sliding control and the second sliding control are located, the method further comprising, after sliding the first sliding control to the second side of the second sliding control, determining, based on a location of the first sliding control obtained after sliding and the location of the second sliding control, the page element selected.

9. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein a location of the second sliding control is non-limiting to the available locations to which the first sliding control can be moved.

10. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing one or more instructions executable by a computer system to perform operations comprising:

receiving an instruction associated with a first sliding control, the first sliding control located on a first side of a second sliding control, wherein the received instruction instructs the first sliding control to be slid to a second side of the second sliding control; and

sliding the first sliding control to the second side of the second sliding control in response to receiving the instruction, wherein sliding the first sliding control to the second side of the second sliding control comprises sliding the first sliding control to the second side of the second sliding control by moving the first sliding control through a location at which the second sliding control is located while preventing the first sliding control from overlapping with the second sliding control.

11. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 10 , wherein the instruction is received in response to a drag operation performed on the first sliding control.

12. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 10 , wherein the first sliding control and the second sliding control are located on a single sliding track, and wherein the first side of the second sliding control comprises a portion of the sliding track on one side of the second sliding control and the second side of the second sliding control comprises a portion of the sliding track on the other side of the second sliding control.

13. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 12 , wherein the sliding track is configured to specify a value interval, wherein the first sliding control and the second sliding control are configured to select a value subinterval from the value interval.

14. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 13 , further comprising, after sliding the first sliding control to the second side of the second sliding control, determining, based on a location of the first sliding control on the sliding track and the location of the second sliding control on the sliding track, the value subinterval selected from the value interval.

15. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 10 , wherein the first sliding control and the second sliding control are sliding handle controls configured to select a page element displayed on a page on which the first sliding control and the second sliding control are located, the operations further comprising, after sliding the first sliding control to the second side of the second sliding control, determining, based on a location of the first sliding control obtained after sliding and the location of the second sliding control, the page element selected.

16. A computer-implemented system, comprising:

one or more computers; and

one or more computer memory devices interoperably coupled with the one or more computers and having tangible, non-transitory, machine-readable media storing one or more instructions that, when executed by the one or more computers, perform one or more operations comprising:

receiving an instruction associated with a first sliding control, the first sliding control located on a first side of a second sliding control, wherein the received instruction instructs the first sliding control to be slid to a second side of the second sliding control; and

sliding the first sliding control to the second side of the second sliding control in response to receiving the instruction, wherein sliding the first sliding control to the second side of the second sliding control comprises sliding the first sliding control to the second side of the second sliding control by moving the first sliding control through a location at which the second sliding control is located while preventing the first sliding control from overlapping with the second sliding control.

17. The computer-implemented system of claim 16 , wherein the first sliding control and the second sliding control are located on a single sliding track.

18. The computer-implemented system of claim 17 , wherein the first side of the second sliding control comprises a portion of the sliding track on one side of the second sliding control and the second side of the second sliding control comprises a portion of the sliding track on the other side of the second sliding control.

19. The computer-implemented system of claim 18 , wherein the sliding track is configured to specify a value interval, wherein the first sliding control and the second sliding control are configured to select a value subinterval from the value interval.

20. The computer-implemented system of claim 19 , wherein the operations further comprise, after sliding the first sliding control to the second side of the second sliding control, determining, based on a location of the first sliding control on the sliding track and the location of the second sliding control on the sliding track, the value subinterval selected from the value interval.

21. The computer-implemented system of claim 16 , wherein the first sliding control and the second sliding control are sliding handle controls configured to select a page element displayed on a page on which the first sliding control and the second sliding control are located, the operations further comprising, after sliding the first sliding control to the second side of the second sliding control, determining, based on a location of the first sliding control obtained after sliding and the location of the second sliding control, the page element selected.
