hard coded or dynamic

[macz_g]

This question goes out to all of us who are full time or dabblers.

Do you use dynamically generated pages or standard HTML?

If you use dynamic pages what are the advantages of this and what is the best language & CMS to use?

I currently stick to standard HTML pages but I am investigating my options and wanted to get a feel for what the rest of you opt for.

I use dynamic pages. It allows all products to be added to a DB and then called to the page as required.

I am sure a few people here can go in to more detail for you thou.

Definitely dynamic. It's much easier to update and maintain.

[Richard Overvold]

Dynamic! PHP is the choice of language for me.

[hdpt00]

So do you all now PHP and MySQL or how do you do it?

[coconubuck]

Dynamic

[internetheaven]

Mixture of static and dynamic.

[wellzy]

Mixture here too.

Dynamic, PHP & MySQL

I'm not a real programmer, so I do cold fusion with MSSQL ... :)

[graywolf]

Both but if I had the time I'd want dynamic that looked like static.

[macz_g]

In order to build a site that generates static HTML pages, Would you use a CMS to do this and if so what would be the best CMS?

Ideally one that is database driven and can use multiple templates.

I use purely static html pages that conform to W3C standards. A bit of SEO and away you go.
