Known Issues

As this is currently a pre-alpha component library, there are several notes of incompatibilities, limited functionality, or 'gotchas' that developers need to be on the lookout for. This page will try to keep track of these issues and monitor them as they are resolved.

If you have any comments, suggestions, or you have found a bug in the library, please feel free to e-mail the YUI.NET project team. The team is not presently working full-time, so please be patient if you do not receive a prompt response.

General Known Issues

  • Some AJAX frameworks may not work appropriately with these controls. These controls have been written more from a pure AJAX standpoint and may require some hand-written JavaScript. The benefit from this is that you get a better AJAX experience in faster pages and you can make better use of async calls.
  • Most controls currently do not maintain complex state across postbacks. Many properties will be maintained, but things like the expanded state of the TreeView or the last-selected tab in the TabView are not being managed right now.

Rich Text Editor Issues

  • Somehow, placing this control within a paragraph element causes JavaScript errors.

SpringPanel Issues

  • The panel doesn't allow content to be collapsed on a first rendering. All SpringPanels must start expanded on a page.

Dialog Issues

  • There is a bug in FireFox currently for modal dialogs with textboxes inside them. FireFox will make the cursor/caret invisible making it a confusing for users. The workaround is one of two things:
    1. Set ShowAsModal="false" on the dialog.
    2. NOTE: This method only works when you know the height of your dialog.
      Add a DIV wrapping content of your dialog with the css property "clear" set to "both." This may throw off your dialog layout, but in most cases you can fix it by adding a DIV underneath with a "position" of "static" and a height of the size of your panel (120px for instance).

      Icon must also be set to "None" for this to display correctly.

      One forum posting on this FF bug is here: http://extjs.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1519

Menu Issues

  • Flash movies can appear above these menus, so we had to set a few parameters on any involved flash movie. See http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/menu/
