Sorry if my previous e-mail was to vague. I am using MMBase as my content management system for the web site that I am building. The website will primarily contain articles, announcements, and news items. Once the articles and news items are written, they rarely will ever be changed or updated. Therefore, I would like the ability for some of the articles and news items to be static pages (improved performance). I was inquiring as to whether MMBase has an builit in feature that would allowed for dynamic generation of static html pages. Perhaps even a feature that would also determine if the stored content (database) is in sync with the static representation, and if not re-generate the page.
There is a hint over the web that this is possible with some CMS, however their are php based. If you have any suggestions or know of a tool that produced similar results I would greatly appreciate it. _Curtney ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kees Jongenburger" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, July 22, 2004 12:09 AM Subject: Re: Dynamic generation of static html pages > On Thursday 22 July 2004 06:27 am, Curtney Jacobs wrote: > > Greetings everyone!! > > > > Is it possible to get the content created in mmbase to produce static html? > > In other words, can you produce static html at publish time? > > MMBase is used different way's (even to create cdrom's). the most used frontend for mmbase are jsp's with taglibs > usualy mmbase sites do not "produce" html but are dynamic of nature. sites with high trafic are placed behind a > caching front-proxy (http://www.nu.nl/) and use oscache when only parts of the html pages a dynamic. > > I don't know what you want. but if I needed to publish html and other media I would use cocoon http://cocoon.apache.org/ as frontend to mmbase > it can produce full html sites or even genereate jsp's. >
