Thread: what is difrence between dynamic and static web pages?

the main difference between static and dynamic web pages is that static pages exist on the web server, while dynamic pages are created on the fly when a web browser requests them.

A static website is one that is written in HTML only. Each page is a separate document and there is no database that it draws on. What this means functionally is that the only way to edit the site is to go into each page and edit the HTML - so you'd either have to do it yourself using a web page editor or we can edit the site each time you wanted something changed.
A dynamic website is written using more complex code and can do a lot more. For instance, we can make an area where you can log in and change various parts of the website, such as adding information or products or changing existing products. eCommerce websites, news websites are some examples of dynamic websites. This is because each page is constructed based on the information in a database, and the information in that database can be changed via another interface.

simple diffrence between static and dynamic web page is static page- a simple page on the web and a dynamic page consist of some graphics animations and videos.

simple difference like self generated and manual generated pages.

Dynamic web page is a kind of web page that has been prepared with fresh information. It responds to the user's needs, and provides relevant information to meet them, by accessing information in a connected database.
And a Static web pages have no updating content, nothing moves, all stands still - hence static. Static web page is a page that is always the same on the web server unless someone changes the HTML code and uploads that page to the server.

dynamic site change according to the user
but
static site are common to all users.....

There are simple differences Dynamic web pages are depending on sever resource while statc pages are depend on own server.

If you could access the web server at a file system level, move the file over to your computer, and then open it up locally in your web browser, it should look exactly the same as if you looked at it through the Internet. Any changes to a static web page need to be made manually, and then saved again.


A dynamic web page is created on the fly. It doesn’t actually exist on the web server until a web browser requests it. When a request is made, web server runs whatever program will create the web page. That program creates the page dynamically and returns it to the web server, which then passes it along to the web browser.

same opinion hold by me too. nice info given by you.

STATIC WEB PAGE: A static web page shows the required information to the viewer, but do not accept any information from the viewer.

DYNAMIC WEB PAGE: A dynamic web page displays the information to the viewer and also accepts the information from the user
Railway reservation, Online shopping etc. are examples of dynamic web page.

Static and dymnamic are the two states of motion. One remains as it is and the other keeps on changing. A static website never changes its appearance, shape or size by any means because it has no such options provided. A normal person can just read out the article or contents in static web page whereas dynamic web page is the type in which a web page can change its value provided it has some accessibility options and is linked with the database.

In dynamic you can change the content of userside pages from other sides ie Admin side or technician side. where as in static page that is only one side ie user side and if you want to change in to it content then you must add manually.
