First post here so apologies if it's in the wrong place!

I have started writing some books for iBooks author and things are going great - I have mastered most stuff. But now I'm wanting to make a specific widget, I'm fairly sure it can be done but as HTML5 and iBA are new, the web doesn't seem to give me any specific answers to the question.

I want to create an interactive timeline, the fader needs to be vertical and as you drag the fader you advance through frames of a movie (or even static pictures if need be). I'd like to create this in Dashcode then export it for use in iBooks Author. Also, I want the fader cap and background to be custom images that I have.

Anyone got any tips/tricks on how to do it? I don't know Dashcode very well at the moment so dumb it down if possible :)

Thanks.
