KidPub was originally
KidPub was originally written in PERL (in 1994/1995), then migrated to PHP in 2001. The current version is based on Drupal (www.drupal.org), which is also using PHP. The database has always been MySQL. In addition to kidpub.com you can get to KidPub at kidpub.net and kidpub.org. kidpub.info currently points to an empty test site on a different set of servers.
If you are interested in building your own web site, Drupal is pretty simple to set up, and you can download and install it on your home computer to play with. To make the site public you'd need to purchase a domain name (we use www.networksolutions.com) and either use a free hosting site or rent space on a server. KidPub is currently hosted on dedicated servers that we lease from Lunar Pages (www.lunarpages.com). We also use PHP Web Hosting (phpwebhosting.com) for some of the test servers. Originally (1994) the KidPub server (there was only one) sat in my living room.
