plz elaborate in details

Static means the information on the page doesn't change. It stays the same as the day you put it on the server.

Dynamic means change - dynamic sites usually have a database backend so the information can be updated, and changed, frequently or so that data can be pulled using queries from forms and such.

Or, in the simplest terms possible, a dynamic page is one that is programmed.

HTML is an example of a static language.

PHP is a server language that is used often for dynamic content (from a database)

HTML is an example of a static language.

Therefore ALL pages are "static" as ALL webpages are HTML.

His idea is correct, HTML does not and never will have the ability to change. However JS,PHP,ect... alter/print new html which in effect "changes" the web page.

PHP, ASP, ColdFusion, .NET, Python, Perl, RoR, JSP and any other server side code you can think of, all create "static" pages, there is no two ways around that fact.

For a website page to be "dynamic" or changed in anyway, even by a single character, using ANY server technology it MUST be requested and resent from the server using a different URI, this could be a URI parameter or a different page name. This is a fundamental of the HTTP protocol.

For ANY user agent there is only ONE indication that a page may be "dynamic" in the database sense, and that is the presence of a parameter in the URI, other than that there is absolutely nothing to indicate whether the page was read as a single entity from a server hard drive, or if it was created "on the fly" by several scripts, or concatenated from several includes, or created "on the fly" from a database then streamed out.

It still boils down to the fact that HTML is static and the other programming languages are dynamic in the fact that they create HTML, but the HTML is still static.

HTML is not a programming language. It is a markup and display language.

Static may also refer to a page written on standard HTML or the one that can not be changed through any CMS. Dynamic is easy to understand... it refers to a technology that allows the user to update any information on a website page through a content management software application.

Or self editing code based on outside vars or user selections.
