Dynamic web sites

A dynamic web site is a site whose content depends upon who - or specifically which browser - is viewing it.

A dynamic Web site is built by a Web server program on a Web server, using information gathered from one or more other programs (usually a database). The other programs may run on the Web server, or on other computers to which the Web server has access.

The Web server program takes information from the database and places it into a template that may be common to all the pages on the Web site. This means that only the information in the database need be changed in order to update the content of the Web site. The information may be changed by people with no knowledge of the construction of Web sites - indeed by people who may never have seen the Web site.

Famous examples of dynamic web sites include Amazon
(http://www.amazon.co.uk ) and the BBC news pages
(http://news.bbc.co.uk).

Hosting

The type of language used depends on the type of server you are utilising. Typically there is the PHP language which runs on Unix servers and ASP which sits on Windows OS machines.

The server needs to run these languages that allows the exchange of information between the Web server software and another program from which information is taken, such as a database.
