Wayyyy too many nested divs..what's the point..might as well use a table at that point...not elegant at all...

Yes - cool concept but seems like "div-itis" all over again...

I really like that yahoo is making all this stuff available, isn't the download for this something ridiculous like only 11k? Unfortunately it's not very practical for real world usage, nested divs aside, because everything has yahoo's name plastered all over it. Even the divs all begin with YUI. It's still a good learning tool though.

I like the concept of this, but I am disappointed by the execution. It's just a mess of nested divs, and the css is full of hacks. While it is somehting I might refer to if I am having difficulty with a specific layout issue, I would NEVER use this as a starting point for building a site. I think that the Layout Gala site accomplishes similar goals in a far more elegant and useful manner

LOL, what a bunch of haters. It's even more ironic considering you all could use a little markup cleanup on your own sites - divitis indeed.

I'd like to see you guys create 100 different cross-browser layouts with a 1.82kb stylesheet. And with CSS3 hooks built in!
