a) yes it does use a database (MySQL) b) even if you don't add an XML sitemap (which you can if it's important for your purposes), all of the linked pages are directly discoverable by search engines c) you can use caching mechanisms to provide you with 100% file-from-disk performance if you require it (Even if your site is made up of "flat HTML files", they may still not be discoverable by search engines.) - Jeff -- linux.conf.au 2010: Wellington, NZ http://www.penguinsvisiting.org.nz/ "It will test your head.
