The main advantage of the filesystem is that it is simple and fast. Often though, in environments like Django where most data is stored in the database, it is more convenient to use the database. I'd say use the database to start off with, and if that's not fast enough, then use a file. Depending on your requirements, may find the Django FlatPage app helpful: http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/flatpages/ Cheers, Alan. > > > > > -- Alan Green [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://bright-green.com --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
