PHP to HTML

Plotting

Hi, having searched around on Google I still couldn't find what I am looking for but came across this site and wondered if you could help.

I have never used php before but what I would like to do is use php to pull content out of my mysql table. Once it is pulled in to the php page I would then like the script to write this to an HTML file. Is this possible? The reason that I want to do this is bacause I do not want anything dynamic on any of my webpages.

Thanks in advance for any help.

That is very possible, look at the PHP web site for more information.

Also, PHP has a great online manual. Look here for infomation on MySQL.

More specifically, you'll need [man]fopen[/man], [man]fwrite[/man], and [man]fclose[/man] to write the files.

Thanks to both of you. I'll look in to the three F's now 😉

Again, thank you.

look for Static HTML Generation With PHP
