Can someone tell me how to use patterns? I found online where there are three parts. I'm thinking one is the JS that gets pasted into your pages and it's CSS....
Vicmatson, Design patterns aren't software, but "recipes" that software developers use to solve common recurring problems. You can't install them. Sometimes,...
I understand they are complex and one would need to be a developer to completely implement them. I just was trying to find where the UI folders go on a remote...
... You can put them wherever you want them. I put them in a folder called "yui". BTW, "ydn-javascript" is the Yahoo! Groups list where YUI is discussed. --...
Thank you for the answer on the first part, but more importantly as far as patterns(auto complete) are concerned can they be pasted into a page? I don't mean...
... Patterns aren't software, so no. You may be able to find an auto-complete component that follows that pattern, however. I know that Yahoo is working on an...
Hi there, I am re-designing a search form for an internal web based CRM application. The form has now grown and includes various list boxes for different...
Hello Keith, Have ever though about the possibility of doing like most search engines do, log the most used attibutes and do a simple search using they, but ...
How far off are we from developing a design pattern for configuring an app feature? I have features in the web app I design that require anywhere from 4 to 9...
Jenifer Tidwell has a configurator/wizard pattern. That is the of course the most general aspect of what you are doing. For the more specific pattern of...
Next version is now live at http://developer.yahoo.com/ypatterns. The yuiblog.com should shortly be updated with the full story. And yes, autocomplete and tab...
Thanks, Bill! That pattern can be found here: http://designinginterfaces.com/Wizard ...But as he said, it's a very general pattern. I didn't address app ...
It's broken into pieces as small as the technology can handle at this point. But you're right, more consolidation needs to happen. And the thing is, it needs...
Hi all -- great job on the Pattern Library. I've really been enjoying it.. I do have one recommendation, however. I only really noticed this with your latest...
Thanks for such well-written recommendation! The idea of user vs. designer comes from our taxonomy. Some patterns tend to be driven by user goals. Others tend...
First off thanks to all those involved for creating a great resource for interaction design and the discussion of patterns. . Im curious as to the lineage of...
Justin, As far as my patterns are concerned, you've reached the end of the trail! When I started the "Common Ground" patterns in 1997, there were no other...
One major distinction I see between these different "pattern libraries" is that prior to Yahoo!, what existed was more of a pattern collection. This had always...
Oops! Sorry, I suppose I should have taken more then a quick glance before assuming the whole thing was on the web. Anyways, it was a fantastic read. Thanks...
No problem. Made for a fascinating read. Shortly we will be posting a series of blog articles that Jenifer Tidwell, Luke Wroblewski (formerly eBay patterns/now...
... None taken, Todd. :-) But can we discuss some of the points you make? Anyone mind if we hijack the thread very briefly? By that I mean that these others...
I have to concur with Jenifer. I actually used Jenifer & Martijn's problem/context statements to create a taxonomy based on user goals & design constraints. I...
I think the biggest nuances were: * Martin's and Jenifer were doing more of a collection than a "guide for how to use a particular pattern" * Martin's and...

... Okay, I'll buy all that (and Bill's comments as well). Yes, I was trying to construct a broad pattern language, with application to many different genres...
Hello Folks, I have been working with YUI Library, I just want to know if the Design Pattern Library is a *.zip file that we can download to see the design...
[apologies for cross-posting] Please, don't worry - we all love unsolicited commercial email! (You should probably fix the HREF on the link to your blog,...
