I am very pleased to announce the first preview of YUI 3. This represents our vision for the evolution of the YUI Library based on the input and feedback we've...
Is there any further word since http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/ydn-javascript/message/32715 on if we can expect to see a documentation generator as part of...
I just noticed that the first messages from me about 3.0 are bug reports, not something to cheer anyone up. The thing is that if I didn't like it, I wouldn't...
Hey Satyam, I think Y is a reference to the YUI global object (as a shorthand), which include all the available modules, OR maybe it's an instance of the YUI...
It's an instance of the YUI object that you get back from the use statement.. Like this: YUI().use('dd', function(DavDD) { //DavDD in an instance of YUI will...
Yeah, as I said, it makes sense to me... Thanks Dav. Ok, now what happen if I need to create a second level of inclusions: YUI().use('dd', function(Y) { ...
Hello guys, As I commented in the YUIBlog, this is great... I think this is the beginning of the end (We have everything in place to be the most powerful...
Hi Satyam Thanks for taking a look at the early release, and the detailed feedback. You still have the ability to setup attributes "individually" in the 2.x ...
... Hey Caridy, Thanks for the for comments and feedback. I agree, its very important that we don't alienate our current users. We will be doing a series of...
Just my 2 cents worth: I've been using YUI since before it was public :) and I have never been "comfortable" with the YUI 2.x syntax. After a while you pick it...
One of the things I've heard about is that it'll be alot easier to write extensions for YUI in the new world. I'd be really interested in seeing a document or...
... Hey Andrew, Glad to hear from you. Most of our stuff can be extended via Y.extend() or .augment, but we plan on plugins being a common way for folks to add...
Andrew, I have to disagree, I like the new syntax (a lot), but I'm not looking forward, I'm looking backward, and a bunch of developers/companies are using YUI...
Yes and no. The call to Y1.Node.get in the second sample makes sense, but can someone point me to where it is Y1 already has a get() method? Do the modules...
In other words Where does Y get get, I don't get it. Talking about this is almost as funny as talking about this These this, though differing in meaning, are...
One thing I would suggest to be helpful is to look at other libraries like jQuery and MooTools. It looks like YUI is adopting some of their coding practices...
Hey Satyam, Take a look at the following "Base" based example which shows you how you can pass additional arguments to listeners for events with event facades,...
Great work! Am still trying to wrap my head around some of these advanced concepts introduced in this forthcoming release. When writing a piece of custom code,...
... Hi Nevin, Thanks for the feedback. Using the "plug" method on Node is the cleanest way to do it. This adds your functionality on a namespace, reducing the...
Hi all, First I must say that the new API looks very promising... I can't wait for the first stable release Looking at the API Docs I see that for each module...
Why is it that YUI doesn't follow the true prototypal style recommendations by Douglas Crockford. If Yahoo cannot even follow their own recommendations, why do...
