Hadley:

Below is an example of what I am trying to do, I just don't understand how to supply the limits to the blue and pink shaded regions and the values of the black line, which are meant to represent from bottom to top, the 5%, 25%, 50%, 75%, 95% limits that I get from quantile():

h + geom_ribbon(aes(ymin=level-2, ymax=level+2),fill='pink')+ geom_ribbon(aes(ymin=level-1, ymax=level+1),fill='light blue')+ geom_line(aes(y=level))

My apologies for not explaining what I was after better previously.

Regards,
Tom

Hadley,

Thanks for responding. No, not smoothed quantile regression. If you go here: 
http://www.erh.noaa.gov/mmefs/index.php and click on one of the colored 
squares, you can see we have 'boxplots'. What I want to express is the 
uncertainty as depicted in the example from my previous email where I can 
specify the limits calculated for the 'boxplots' using  5%, 25%,75%, 95% limits 
as we have with the 'boxplots'.

  I'm interested in creating a graphic -like- this:

c<- ggplot(mtcars, aes(qsec, wt))
c + geom_point() + stat_smooth(fill="blue", colour="darkblue",
size=2, alpha
= 0.2)

but I need to show 2 sets of bands (with different shading) using
5%, 25%,
75%, 95% limits that I specify and where the heavy blue line is the
median.
I don't understand how to do this with ggplot2.
Exactly what sort of limits do you want?  It sounds like maybe you are
looking for smoothed quantile regression.
