I should receive some notification that my previous comment is going to be reviewed before it is published. My immediate reaction was to think that it wasn't sent (maybe it wasn't?). Also, like Yahoo!'s own guidelines suggest for writing reviews, people like having a "Preview" button. I think it's true for blog comments, too. P.S.

Offer?" incorrectly point to travel and shopping, which are the next 2 links. Also, where is the Feedback/Contact link on http://developer.yahoo.net/? There is none, anywhere.

Sounds silly for a JavaScript library, but this is part of overall good web design, and your examples should therefore show JavaScript used sensibly. For example, some of the calendar control examples should show how to use your libraries sensibly. The travel site seemed good as there are alternative inputs. (I didn't check if that little calendar icon itself was created using JavaScript). However, some of the other examples like multiple selection etc, while I appreciate they are demonstrating the technology, should also use that opportunity to show, or at least discuss what you should bear in mind for accessibility (where JavaScript can still be used), and where JavaScript is disabled (to show developers how to allow users to still access the underlying functionality.) Else, this is good stuff!! This looks good, but I think you should keep accessibility in mind and also how a page functions when JavaScript is disabled.

User Interface Blog has written a fantastic explanation (and very technical, too) of how browsers as a GUI platform resemble early desktop development. Creating rich desktop-like applications through a browser is facing similar challenges that desktop applications faced over a decade ago. They’ve taken a concept written by Alan Cooper called the the ‘GUI ecosystem’ for desktops and applied it to JavaScript development for browsers. The concept structures various levels of user interface into a hierarchical pyramid based on complexity. The benefit of this is by modeling code into ‘tool-kits’ keeping the ‘GUI ecosystem’ in mind as Yahoo! has done with its User Interface Library you can develop exceptional user-interface widgets for your web page.
