Michael,

You can either specify the fullpath for the module or if you want to set a base path for a group of modules you'll be using you can put them into a groups object and specify some base params.

More info here: http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/3/yui/ - Skip down to the part that says Loader and there is an example of the groups feature I'm talking about

I don't have time at the moment to whip up an example but we did have a discussion about this a couple of days ago.

ericf posted a great explanation on how it works. between that and the official ydn docs you should be able to get it up and running.

another thing to take note of is that groups was not officially added to the loader until yesterday with 3.1.0 so make sure you're using the latest version

hope this helps a little

Yes, thanks, I figured it out, just beautiful. Unfortunately compared to YUI2 one has to invest significantly more time figuring out the library's source code. Oh well, that's progress(?) I guess (okay, there's a lot more infrastructure now, I love it)

Adding my question to this thread because it's tangentially related. I'd like to set up a group in loader so that I don't have to type out the entire path each time. I'm not combo-handling the files, this is solely to reduce string repetition. Yes, I could do this via a variable but I wanted to learn how the groups stuff works.

What am I doing wrong? It should be loading but instead it's trying to load

Change 'fullpath' to 'path'. Loader resolves the url using either fullpath or base + path.
