It's not as much a matter of learning YUI as it is a matter of learning the proper way to code in JavaScript. A good start there is to go through the "Douglas Crockford — "The JavaScript Programming Language" videos on the YUI theatre site. * http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/theater/ (Really, do this today!) Personally, I find creating interfaces in JavaScript to be much simpler than wresting with server tags and scriplets. If we had in 1998 the JavaScript libraries and tools we have in 2008, server pages and JSF would never have been invented. As for YUI itself, my team was an early adopter of the DataTable (as in the first beta). We ran into issues, but even as novice JavaScript programmers, we never found an issue we couldn't patch by reviewing the code. Of course, having tools like FireBug that let you step through the scripts makes a world of difference.
