<p>This demonstrates how to animate the <code>xy</code> position of an element.</p>

<p> Click anywhere to move the element to your click position.</p>

</div>

<div class="example">

{{>anim-xy-source}}

</div>

<h3>Setting up the HTML</h3>

<p>First we add some HTML to animate.</p>

```

<div id="demo" class="yui3-module">

<div class="yui3-hd">

<h4>Animation Demo</h4>

<a title="remove module" class="yui3-remove"><em>x</em></a>

</div>

<div class="yui3-bd">

<p>This an example of what you can do with the YUI Animation Utility.</p>

<p><em>Follow the instructions above to see the animation in action.</em></p>

</div>

</div>

```

<h3>Creating the Anim Instance</h3>

<p>Now we create an instance of <code>Y.Anim</code>, passing it a configuration object that includes the <code>node</code> we wish to animate. We will set the <code>to</code> attribute later when then animation runs.</p>

```

var anim = new Y.Anim({

node: '#demo',

duration: 0.5,

easing: Y.Easing.elasticOut

});

```

<h3>Changing Attributes</h3>

<p>Next we need a <code>click</code> handler to set the <code>to</code> attribute for the <code>xy</code> behavior and run the animation.</p>

```

var onClick = function(e) {

anim.set('to', { xy: [e.pageX, e.pageY] });

anim.run();

};

```

<h3>Running the Animation</h3>

<p>Finally we add an event handler to run the animation when the document is clicked.</p>

```

Y.one('document').on('click', onClick);

```
