I couldn’t understand some parts of this article s Blog » Impressions of Using YUI to Build a Website Speed Check Client, but I guess I just need to check some more resources regarding this, because it sounds interesting.

I would edit my reply if I could, but I realize I also refreshView on the dataTable, which is what does the reformatting of the cell.

Came across your blog while searching on a similar issue. Here is the solution I have.
If you have the YAHOO.widget.Record (the first arg in your function), then a simple record.setData(key,value) should work to set the data and format the cell (it does for me).

The only trick with it, is if you have a parser setup in your datasource, then you must do the parsing yourself. E.g:
oRecord.setData("subscribe_ts",YAHOO.util.DataSource.parseDate(rsp.subscribe_ts));

Awesome, Eric. I’ve implemented this and I’ve crossed one item off my YUI wishlist.

Love the new speed measurement site! Congrats on getting that launched and for sharing your thoughts on DataTable.

I wanted to let you know that we’ve added combo handling to yui.yahooapis.com, so you can reduce your HTTP count on that page pretty dramatically:

That will take out five http connections, which is a nice savings.

Continued good luck with the project!

Regards,
Eric
