How to generate HTML pages

Oct 5 2004 9:53 AM
Hi all, I'm about to embark on a new personal project and can't decide quite how to do it. In summary, I have a database whose data I want to use to create html pages for a website. The website will just be a series of static hmtl pages. I will keep all the data locally and would generate the required pages and upload them whenever I needed to. I do not want to have the database anywhere but on my lcoal machine. My questions are: 1. Should I create a windows or web application to generate my pages? 2. If a window app, will this be faster? 3. If an web app, how do I automatically save the result of an aspx page as static html? 4. What would you recommend as the best way to generate these pages - HTMLTextWriter? 5. Should I perhaps generate XML and use XSL to render the pages? 6. What classes are available 9and best) for the generation of html pages? Which direction would you all head in? Thanks for any advice or ideas. Nick
