     * @param {Object} attributes The attribute(s) to be animated.
     * Each attribute is an object with at minimum a "to" or "by" member defined.
     * Additional optional members are "from" (defaults to current value), "units" (defaults to "px").
     * All attribute names use camelCase.
     * @param {Number} duration (optional, defaults to 1 second) Length of animation (frames or seconds), defaults to time-based
     * @param {Function} method (optional, defaults to YAHOO.util.Easing.easeNone) Computes the values that are applied to the attributes per frame (generally a YAHOO.util.Easing method)
