color=#0000ff size=2>If your poem only has a body, as I think it did when I
helped you mock this site up some time ago, then you don't need CKK. CKK
is for adding fields to a node type beyond title and body, not for creating a
new node types. It used to be that you needed flexinode to create a new
content type, called Poem, but now you can do this with stock drupal. You
can still add categories (taxonmy terms) to new content types as
before. You can create the Poem content type without using other modules,
provided that you don't need any additional fields. CKK Let's you
add fields to custom defined content types. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>

color=#0000ff size=2>With regard to views, it is used to provide different
slices of the data. Want to provide a custom page showing all the poems
submitted by a user, or the currently logged in user, Views is good for
that. Want to provide a block containing all poems of a specified
category? Views is good for that as well. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>

color=#0000ff size=2>Views and CKK are considered a couple of the basic
must haves in Drupal, and well worth the time to just get them
downloaded and installed in your Drupal 5 site. </FONT></SPAN><SPAN

color=#0000ff size=2>I left up my mockup of your Poem site (drupal 4.7) on
www2.evergreen.edu/dave, and was surprised to find that people are periodically
finding this site and submitting Poems. :) It's been entertaining, so I've left
it up.....</FONT></SPAN></DIV><BR></BODY></HTML>
