Details
The website is constructed with a pure CSS layout but uses HTML 4.0 due to much of the content being updated by end-users via a WYSIWYG editor. This prevents a purely XHTML Strict doctype from being used.
One notable feature is the way different site locations are displayed. All using the same HTML code but with different stylesheets applied, creating an obvious visual aid to the user.
The backend interface is powered by VYRE Unify which is a commercial level Content Management System that is written in Java.
