[Solar-talk] YUI Grids, anyone?

[Rodrigo Moraes]

Clay, by the way, I'm still in love with YUI-ext's BorderLayout [1],
not for general use but it is very good for UI's with tons of events.
I know you are not a YUI/YUI-ext fan ;-), but I would like to know
what do you think about layouts highly based on javascript. It is the
best I've ever seem combining semantic markup + easy to manage + you
get what you want, and you can provide real actions / alternative
stylesheet that makes it also good for non-javascript readers
(example: I open a ajax based dialog for an action but a mobile would
go to a real page with an alternative version of the dialog contents,
and both share the same Solar template). So (and I was some time ago
very against a lot of js in a page, but things changes ;-), do you
have an opinion about javascript based layouts?
