>- see footer for list info -< Have to disagree there. You should always use a database. If content does not change, just leave it static or CMS it and cache it if need be.
Do any of the major CMS's out there offer both options? I haven't come across any. At the end of the day is just using a database for what it is built for.

It is probably down to the content on each document; some will change regularly so "frying" a page with DB calls will be more efficient than creating a static "baked" page. Others will rarely change, so baking now and again may be more efficient then constantly frying 'em up. Ideally then, use (or develop) a CMS that offers both options on a document by document basis. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Duncan Cumming Sent: 18 August 2005 16:19 To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [CF-Dev] CMS >- see footer for list info -< >>> "Kerry" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 18/08/2005 15:08 >>> database = yuck, storing that amount of text in a db and then pulling it down the pipe repeatedly That's how any database driven site should work... storing your content in hundreds/thousands of files and either reading them or cfincluding them isn't going to be more efficient than querying a db. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Allan Cliff Sent: 18 August 2005 15:02 To: Coldfusion Development Subject: [CF-Dev] CMS >- see footer for list info -< Me again, I am about to embark on a small CMS project and am contemplating the difference between creating directly htm pages or save the data to the db and create the page everytime. I did think about Farcry but I remember the last time I wasted 2 days work trying to get the damn thing to work. It kept asking to create some containers or something like that. I just gave up in the end. Not intuitive at all and bad documentation. Any other easier to use free CMS options or shall I write my own? Also opinions on the above, whether to write to db and create on the fly or write to htm directly. Allan P.S. Can anyone tell me if I should use a trigger or an sp?
