*cough* Other frameworks are available *cough*. jQuery [1] being my
current fave.

It's really nice and lightweight (I reduced the JavaScript payload on
one of our sites from 100k+ to <40k by switching from YUI to
jQuery...). It's got a plugin architecture, too, so if the core
library doesn't do what you want, chances are someone's written a
plugin that does, or you can write one yourself.

The usual "make sure you know what the hell you're doing wrt
progressive enhancement" caveats apply.
