Has anybody used the Yahoo UI library successfully with rails? I am particulary interested in some of the ratings tools they used (like 4 out of 5 stars thing rating a post). Curious to see if anyone out there has worked with this at all. adam ---

I’m planning on using it with RoR (and PHP) and would like to know if anyone ran into issues with it (like browser compatibility, etc.). ---

We used it on Lingr, when we were developing it: [http://lingr.com](http://lingr.com) – which is a Rails app. > I’m planning on using it with RoR (and PHP) and would like to know if > anyone ran into issues with it (like browser compatibility, etc.). We didn’t run into any real issues with it. We decided not to use it in the live app because the libraries are _large_, and we only needed a small amount of the functionality. So it made more sense to write our own code for the few things we needed done (like the login dialog). My experience with the YUI libraries was generally quite positive though. Very powerful and well thought out. – Chris B., Hypsometry [http://hypsometry.com/](http://hypsometry.com/) Web Application Design & Development ---

I’ve been using Yahoo!s Reset, Font, Grid CSS files for my last couple of Rails projects very successfully. I haven’t used the JS stuff as the bundled JS with each Rails project (Prototype and Scriptaculous have sufficiently met my needs)
