This is HUGE! YUI libraries updated and open sourced!
You know what's bigger than big? The fact that the core libraries that I use on a daily basis here inside Yahoo! have been released to the world with all of the engineering, browser compatibility, all the CSS workarounds, and tons of new features, widgets, and other jiggery pokery. If you do any DHTML you would be cheating yourself not to go download and try out all this great stuff -- not just the DHTML stuff but the CSS grids are huge in and of themselves. Imaging creating a page that looks great in all browsers and degrades gracefully in older ones with a minimum of work!
Shweeeah this is gewd stuff!

Very potent and elegant stuff! Thanks for sharing.
One question - there's a drag and drop panel behavior I have seen that I wonder whether you know of a library that could support this. You can see it in action at www.pageflakes.com. The way the "flakes" darg n drop is extremely nice. It's more or less the same behavior of Google's home page - drag n drop of gadgets. Would the Yahoo libary get one there? Or do you know of another library that has this stuff built in... thanks much.
Yes! The yahoo utilities could totally emulate that drag and drop behavior. They can "snap to" locations, etc.
very cool. i will try an implement.
btw - your blog is extremely interesting! i am also hugely interested in game programming and design - from similar perspectives as you delve into here. been looking more into openlazlo, flex. it's an exciting time for all that. since i just discovered your blog - i have to now go back through all the archives - so much great stuff here! i'll be around a lot :)
