bib-publication-list to automatically generate an interactive HTML publication list from a BibTeX file

Getting Started
===============
First, load the required JavaScript files:

<script src="jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="bib-list-min.js"></script>

All you need to do is to include the BibTeX into an HTML page and tell the script to turn it 
into a sortable and searchable table. For example:

<table id="pubTable" class="display"></table>
<pre id="bibtex">@article{Karavirta:JVLCTaxonomy,
title = {A comprehensive taxonomy of algorithm animation languages},
journal = {Journal of Visual Languages \& Computing},
volume = {20},
number = {1},
pages = {1--22},
year = {2010},
issn = {1045-926X},
doi = {DOI: 10.1016/j.jvlc.2009.09.001},
author = {Ville Karavirta and Ari Korhonen and Lauri Malmi and Thomas Naps}
}
</pre>

Finally, the bib-publication-list needs to know the input data element and the output table. So, one 
line of JavaScript:

bibtexify("#bibtex", "pubTable");

Alternatively, the bibtex can be loaded from a file. Personally I prefer including it in the HTML, 
though. This way, browsers without JavaScript enabled get at least to see the bibtex instead of a blank page.
This causes an ugly-looking flash of unstyled content, though.

bibtexify("example-biblist.bib", "pubTable");

The result looks like my publication list at: http://villekaravirta.com/publications/.

If you want to fix the flash of unstyled content, you can hide the #bibtex element and make it
visible when JavaScript is disabled. To do that, add
#bibtex { display: none; }
to your CSS and

<noscript><style>#bibtex { display: block; }</style></noscript>

to your HTML.


Configuration Options
=====================
The bibtexify function accepts an optional third parameter for configuration options. These options include:

visualization     A boolean to control addition of the visualization. Defaults to true.
tweet             Twitter username to add Tweet links to bib items with a url field.
sorting           Control the default sorting of the list. Defaults to [[0, "desc"], 
                  [1, "desc"]]. See http://datatables.net/api fnSort for details on formatting.


Building from source
====================
There is a Jakefile for building the combined and minified versions with Jake (https://github.com/mde/jake)
and a Makefile for building with make.
