So you think you've figured out everything with drupal and views until you get the request from a client that just cannot be done via stock Views;What was the request about? Making a select box with a range of values where all you have is a CCK number/float.Wait,what?impossible you say?No,not of course , not at all ! It just needs a little bit of this and that and some magic dust and you are ready.Ok this is not something new or something i made it from scratch . I found here the solution (http://www.metaltoad.com/blog/how-make-range-selector-filter-views) by Chuck Vose but it is for drupal 6.x :) . . . Drupal 6.x you said ? yes , drupal 6.x and how about drupal 7.x ? well for drupal 7.x it's almost the same but you need to modify the new format of the 'form-fields' in drupal 7.x.
So this is my solution for drupal 7.x hope it helps someone out there .
