I need help. I am building a database for a small college that wants to be able to update their program information for each department through an web/gui program.
I've decided to use, MYSQL, Apache, PHP and FreeBSD as the OS. (I built my web page this way) Here's my QUESTION! Because some of the program information is large I don't want to query the data base everytime do I? This would take up to many resources. So I've decided to write a program that will take the information from the MYSQL tables and build static pages every night and remove the old ones through a cron job? How does this sound? Is this standard practice, if not what would be a better way of doing this. This college has about 1600 students? Thanks in advance, I plan on doing alot of planning and really apreciate reading this email. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
