"High-Tech" Site: The SSI Method

The second best method for a "high-tech" site is the SSI method, you should only use it if PHP is NOT available.

You should make your site template as you normally would, but where you put the "content" of your site, you should instead put this:

     

Next, you should make a file called "default.txt" with the home page text in it. It should not contain tags such as <html>, <head>, or <body>. It's ok to have formatting tags like <b>, or <u> though.

You should then make all of your pages content into files like "blogs.txt", "avatars.txt", etc. These filenames ARE case-sensitive, which means that Blog is different than blog. You can then access pages you have created like this: http://www.yourdomain.com/?FILEHERE, for example, with "blogs.txt" you could access the page like this: http://www.yourdomain.com/?blogs. If the page you try to access doesn't exist you will get an error that says "There was an error in page generation".

This technique works on freewebs, and can be used to easily add new pages and change templates.
