What is something that is dynamically created?

As the title says, what is something that is dynamically created? I’m thinking like websites etc, is a forum dynamically created?

In general yes a forum is dynamically generated. There is a template for the page and depending on the url variables eg which post it is (?post=7), the page will get data from a database and create the page. With dynamic pages the content changes with user involvement or variables set in the url.

It can be quite simple as above or more complicated such as If you had a page which asked questions and returned different page elements depending on the answer. the page would be dynamic in that it can return different information.

A static page would just be a page of html which doesn’t change regardless of user input.

That’s my perhaps poor example and understanding of it.

Perhaps an editor’s auto-correct.

@zibomuxew, welcome to the forum.

Thank you! That cleared my mind a lot :slight_smile:
