I've heard good things, but I've also heard that YUI "forces" (defaults) you into using Yahoo services?<br>Yea, I heard about Dojo having incomplete documentation. Could I ask, what version were you using? They seem to be up to
0.9 and 1.0 beta.<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 11/1/07, <b class="gmail_sendername">Chuck Martin</b> <<a href="mailto:cwurld@yahoo.com">cwurld@yahoo.com</a>> wrote:</span><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
About 9 months ago, I tried using dojo with my Django<br>site. Although dojo looked promising, I found it<br>frustrating to use. The documentation was incomplete<br>and sometimes contradictory. I had the most luck when<br>
I used their unit tests as documentation.<br><br>About the same time, I also explored Yahoo's User<br>Interface (YUI) library. I had much better luck with<br>it. It has better documentation and lots of examples.<br>So dropped Dojo and am using YUI exclusively.
<br><br>YUI also has an incredibly active Yahoo Users Group<br>and it appears that they have people on the payroll<br>who work on this code full time.<br><br>One thing that real amazed me was I was using their<br>layout code and ran into troubles with Safari. So I
<br>posted a note on the message board. Some one responded<br>quickly and we exchanged several messages. I turns out<br>he was one of the Yahoo developers. Since I could not<br>resolve the problem, he actually logged into my
<br>webpage and worked on the problem for several hours.<br>Unfortunately he could not resolve it, but I applaud<br>the effort.<br><br>I think putting YUI in the public domain is good for<br>Yahoo and good for the rest of us. They get a huge
<br>group of testers for free and we get some pretty<br>robust code.<br><br>Chuck<br><br><br>--- Chris McAvoy <<a href="mailto:chris.mcavoy@gmail.com">chris.mcavoy@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br><br>> I just recently caught up with Dojo...these neat-o
