A good design has static pages and server-side generated ones only when needed. At least that is the case for a site the scope of Sys-Call-Track. If the entire site is very dynamic and changes often, then it makes sense to serve it entirely on a server-side scripting scheme. But for most normal sites, it is a good idea to have static HTML pages. It's much faster and more secure. Regards, Shlomi Fish > > > 4.
