Not true. YUI is much more then a Javascript library, and it outputting alot of HTML and CSS could (possibly!) make it break your valid pages. I am using YUI, its very nice, but i've only been using it for some small things and I did not yet validate them, and even if I had, it would not be a guarantee for other parts of the library. It *is* tested in alot of browsers for compatibility, which is maybe even more important then standards compliance (sorry...). regards, Maarten > > If you consider WCAG a "web standard", then you need to make sure that > your > page "is still accessible when scripts are turned off" (or words to that > effect).
