Static web pages may be easy to setup using text processors or user-friendly web editing software. However, some basic knowledge of the implementation (HTML) is usually needed for final editing and maintenance. As a result many static web pages are left without appropriate updating. With a database driven, dynamic approach web contents may change through user interaction, the pages are usually easier to maintain, and design elements are separated from contents. Database driven solutions (or content management systems) for larger organizations may be purchased at many different levels of complexity. For smaller systems, such as separate courses or projects, they may, however, be developed locally. The present study compares four alternative technologies for database driven web pages. Each technology offers advantages and disadvantages and many issues need to be considered when selecting platform. The present study demonstrates that database driven web pages may be effectively deployed using free Open Source software. Details may be found at www.intermed.dk/datadriven.
