Static Web Pages

(HTML) was the first tool with which people to create web pages. HTML is a language that stylize text, create paragraphs and line breaks etc. All these links that we see on web pages are created using HTML.

Pages created with HTML are static pages because they remain the same for all the time to come -until and unless you change them manually. Then scripting languages came into scene with JavaScript beating other scripting languages big time. JavaScript became factor scripting language. With scripting language -you can add a bit of dynamic element in static pages. For example, with JavaScript you can make a random number display every time a web page loads in browser. But even such pages are called static pages.

Dynamic Web Pages
If you go to a online shopping website and see the product list -there are high chances that you'll be looking as a dynamic web pages.

Such web pages have two main components; Style of the page and information. Style of the page is created using tools like HTML, CSS, JavaScript while the information is stored separately in a database. When a dynamic page loads in browser -it requests the database to furnish information depending upon user's choice. When the page receives this information from database -the styling code gets applied on it and the resulting web page is displayed to the user.

Static is good for a one-way flow of information, from your site to the visitors. This suits some situations perfectly. Dynamic will invite your site visitors to become involved and engaged.
