Maian Gallery uses the awesome template engine Savant2, written by Paul M. Jones. This IMO, is a
more powerful and easy to understand template system than Smarty. v2 is written for PHP4, but runs ok under PHP5 as I have used it. ie, without the need for E_STRICT. To view some of the more advanced features
of Savant2, see the documentation.
My thanks to Paul for contributing this software to the community.
