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

Hi all,
what is difrence between dynamic and static web pages?

Dynamic pages can change depending on data from other sources, i.e. MYSQL databases, whilst static pages always stay the same unless they are manually updated.

static pages are those pages which are ready without database and they have no form filling option no login sign up option and just some images and data but dynamic web pages are those who is made with SQL or My SQL database and they have every option that is not in static web page.

A static web page is one that has been written once, like a word processing document, and then saved onto the web server. It’s like a file. 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.

So 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.

Dynamic page is we can able to update the things to server but Static page we cannot do any changes.

dynamic websites interact with a server while static do not.

Dynamic websites involve interactions with the user and can offer transactions to carry-off with the server, like paypal feature in websites,offering you with the auto-generate registration no. while applying for a form , but in static page, one can only read the info provided and transact anything,..!

Dynamic webpage is a kind of web page that has been prepared with fresh information for each individual viewing.

Static webpage is a web page that is delivered to the user exactly as stored, in contrast to dynamic web pages.

Static web pages means you can't change page after creating once.

Dynamic web page means you can change frequently. These pages are useful for daily uses like sharemarket, weather.

dynamic --> connect to server database. Client can send request to get the data from server.

Thanks for this explanation I really do not know some of these things.

static website is that website which does not change its data or content on user demand .static website uses only html and not any other language.

dynamic website is that website which does change content on user demand . dynamic website uses javascript ,php ,asp.net etc. languages .
