Internet: Page: Dynamic/Static: What is the difference between a 
static and a dynamic web page?

A dynamic web page appears different depending on inputs of each person
viewing it.

A static page has no programming or the data on the static page never 
change whereas the dynamic page is a programming driven page which has 
a backend database and the values displayed on a dynamic page are 
called from database.
