I am comparing ExtJS and YUI. They seem pretty much tied on the technical side. ExtJs costs money, not much. But YUI is free.
Maybe I am missing something obvious, but ExtJs lets you define forms. I didn't see forms in YUI. Where are they?

A:
YUI doesn't have a form component that is similar to the stuff in EXTJS. You'd have to build it yourself (either from markup, or your own JS).

A:
ExtJS has FormPanels (a container of the widgets that make up a form), a FormLayout (a vehicle to help the developer place labels and input elements in a panel), and a BasicForm (encapsulates the DOM element at the heart of the FormPanel class). I have seen developers confuse these classes; be warned. :-)

For forms work with yui I recommend taking a look at http://javascript.neyric.com/inputex/
It offers a simple json based way for defining your forms with validation and all that jazz.
