I would like to use the JQuery slider for my mobile application

However, using the Slider plugin, requires me to use the entire JQuery core (29kb) + Slider plugin (6kb).

Typically, that's okay but for a mobile application - that's a lot of data.

Question: Anyway I can use the JQuery Slider and eliminate any bloat that might exist in the core? I would really like to reduce this 29kb core down to something much smaller. (e.g. just using Sizzle + plugin or something like that if that worked)

(Keep in mind the file sizes above is for both gzipped and pressed JS)

You may be interested in jQTouch.

jQTouch is a jQuery plugin with native animations, automatic navigation, and themes for mobile WebKit browsers like iPhone, G1, and Pre.

You can also use the jQuery Mobile version of the slider : http://jquerymobile./demos/1.0a4.1/#docs/forms/forms-slider.html

You could also take a look at YUI2 or YUI3 slider modules.

YUI 2 Slider

YUI 3 Slider

here's the latest version of JQM
