The 2 Types of Websites
The 2 Types of Websites are Static- and Dynamic-Content.
Static-Content: Although all websites use HTML/CSS, static sites are limited to HTML/CSS, with perhaps a bit of java script as well. A static-content site, as implied by the name, does not change the way it looks and behaves based upon any visitor profile or interaction. Every page looks the same to every visitor. As the owner, editing the page content may require the use of HTML editing software.
Suitable For: "Online Brochure" websites, and for organizations that do not plan to change the content often on their pages.
Dynamic-Content: These websites use a server-side scripting language (ColdFusion, Ruby-On-Rails, Perl, PHP, .Net, etc) in conjunction with HTML/CSS. The scripting language components generally interact with a database. The scripting language operates on the hosting server (thus "server-side script"), not on the user's computer, like java script does. Dynamic website pages are able to accept input data (fill-in forms) and store that information in a database on the server, allowing a visitor to create a user profile and personalized experience. The phrase "Web 2.0" is often used to describe the principle of highly-interactive features and functionality on the web.
