This site is built on Textpattern 4.2.0. Page templates are deliberately minimal, with most formatting tags (txp or html) contained in form templates instead. All visual layout is based on a single global CSS stylesheet; tables are used only for data presentation and sorting (see sorttable.js below).

Textpattern-specific plugins used on this site:

  • aam_typogrify — for assorted typographical effects;
  • bas_flvplayer — for embedded Flash video;
  • jnm_audio — to enable the internal Flash audio player (a separate small executable) and to build the XML feed for podcasting;
  • mg_setheader — enables the XML header required for the audio feed;
  • rss_admin_db_manager — for regular database backups;
  • zem_contact_reborn — for the poetry submission form;
  • zem_contact_lang — helper file to set language for zem_contact_reborn.

Javascript, Flash, and PHP used on this site (additional to Textpattern’s own scripts):

  • audio-player.js and player.swf — script and Flash animation called by the jnm_audio plugin;
  • mediaplayer.swf — called by the bas_flvplayer plugin;
  • sorttable.js — enables the sorting function on the bibliography page;
  • a simple PHP script for importing database entries from a flat-text database, also for the bibliography page.
