Re: Dynamic generation of static html pages

Hi,
You can use httrack or wget to generate static html files from your 
MMBase dynamic website. I used it as well. It works really well.

regards,
Ruud

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.

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.
