Use Precajoled JavaScript Libraries
JavaScript libraries such as YUI, JQuery, Prototype, and Dojo have become core tools in website and application development. Numerous library developers have made strides in providing at least a subset of their libraries that can be cajoled without generating errors. The YUI, JQuery, and Prototype libraries currently have the most development work completed toward cajoling subsets of their functionality.

It marked the first attempt by the cross-functional YUI, Caja, and Developer Network teams at Yahoo! to provide a subset for use within Caja. As of YUI 2.8, any version 2 of the library can be cajoled if needed. YUI 3 is currently not tested within a Caja environment.

YUI core
YAHOOglobal object (base requirement for all YUI components)DOM collection (convenience methods for DOM interactions)
Event utility (event normalization and custom events)
YUI library utilities
