PHP vs HTML
I understand the benefits of PHP with dynamic sites, but unclear if there are any benefits of using LsqlPHP on a site that uses static HTML pages. Since I want to build static HTML pages should I use LinksSQLPHP or not, or does the new version give you a choice of build options?

Well, if you want to use static html, then use static html Smile. If you have a site which uses a lot of PHP and think it would be easier to integrate LinksSQL with your site with the PHP frontend instead of the Perl CGI frontend, then the PHP frontend would be for you.

Hi,

No, if you are using static pages, there isn't too much benefit. It comes down to what you are more familiar with. If you are experienced with PHP, then you'll find the PHP templates easier to work with.

Cheers,

Alex
