ISAPI Rewrite is what i use, its great, trial of 30 days i believe, free for certain commands, cost is one time fee maybe $80 for full server license,

works GREAT! i use it on so many sites, so flexible with how u can use it and what you can do, let me know if u need help setting it up.

Thanks for your reply.

I have heard a lot about ISAPI rewrite it seems best available software in the market at the moment. I would go for it.

for me it was confusing at first, i was lucky enough to have someone guide me through it, i would be more than happy to do the same for you if you run into similar problems

Hi Lty83

I looked at the ISAPI_Rewrite to convert dynamic pages into static pages.

I find it difficult to implement. If possible could you please guide me how to convert intop html pages.

Many thanks

convert database driven pages into static pages

ISAPI Rewrite converts the URL into a new url that "looks" static. But the pages are still dynamic.

Perhaps this is getting off topic, but I am curious:

Why would you want to convert dynamic pages into static ones? I'm not questioning anyone's decision to do so, I'm just wondering what situations would make such a decision necessary.

SEs like pages in this format "www.site.com/page1" better than pages in this format "www.site.com/page.asp?no=1"

There are a few reasons to go from dynamic to static...

A project might be built on a dynamic infrastructure but doesn't really need it on an ongoing basis and can simply be built / maintained offline and uploaded. In this case going static would reduce your hosting requirements, and might reduce CPU usage and load times.

It might also be a cost cutting measure if you lose one host but can't find another suitable one - rather than paying over the odds for MS SQL access you simply go static until you can find a better host.

They could simply want an offline copy of the site to burn to a CD, allowing offline sales people to demo it.

...or it could just be that responsibility for handling the site has fallen to someone who doesn't understand how to maintain dynamic pages, and after assessing the sites functionality they decided it could become static without losing any real features.
