[Zope] Help with Z Search Interface and ranges

[Jeff Rush]

Take a look at:
  http://www.zope.org/SiteIndex/newitems.html/view_source

where zope.org uses a lower-range on the date field to show all items
new within a recent interval of time.  The key is to append a '_usage'
string to the name of the field you wish to bracket.

<!--#call "REQUEST.set('date_usage','range:min')"-->
<!--#call "REQUEST.set('date', ZopeTime().earliestTime()-1)"-->

In your case, you'd use both a min and a max:

<!--#call "REQUEST.set('price_usage','range:min:max')"-->
<!--#call "REQUEST.set('price', [10000, 15000])"-->

I can't remember whether the range is inclusive or not i.e.
whether it represents >= or just >.
