Can I build dynamic website with HTML technology?

    Hello,
    I am very good at HTML, I didn't learn any other language perfectly. I have tried to learn php, java but I really don't understand those languages like HTML. Now, if I want to build a dynamic website with just HTML then is it possible? Or I have to learn java, Php?

    You should learn JavaScript and PHP. PHP can help more in developing dynamic website then HTML.

    You can find a Html based CMS platform like- http://www.halogy.com/ and also there are another system called DWT (Dynamic Web Template) which can be made by Html.. Try google to learn these things

    Every CMS uses some sort of server side scripting (like php). You can use a CMS to make a dynamic site, but when you encounter a problem, you either have to ask around, or learn a bit of PHP. Your call

    You should atleast learn a server side scripting language like php, asp.net, jsp, servlet etc for creating a dynamic web side.

    It's impossible to code it just in HTML - HTML is the building block and the other server-side programming languages come into effect to make the site dynamic.

    Using PHP and the include() function is the easiest way to create a dynamic website. You may also want to look into MySQL databases to help organise your content as well.

    Hi muzam

    I agree with everyone but it all depends on the time you have available, and who the website is for. If you are in no rush and you want to design it for yourself. Why not use an HTML editor. But if you are building for customers you might make the effort of learning PHP and Java. You wil be rewarded by what you charge your customers.:)

    First of all HTML is static, you need to add PHP .NET programming languages to your HTML to make a dynamic website. If you are a newbie just start with Wordpress :)

    You should learn a few codes like PHP. I really recommend you. Just use XHTML, try to convert them into PHP scripts (with simple scripts like include or require). You will know how to continue after that.

    First of all, you cannot compare PHP or other language to HTML. HTML is only "markup" language, not programming language. Try to google "html php difference"

    HTML is only for static websites in order to make it dynamic you have to use javascript or php with it. Otherwise wordpress sites are easy you can build dynamic sites on that.

    HTML and PHP can do pretty much everything.
    JavaScript is like French. You really only need to learn enough to catch the right train, tell someone to fuck off, and ask where the toilets are.
