How to know a website is static or dynamic ???

Hello,

I have a question. Is there any ways that we can check a my Covoco website is either dynamic or static or when visiting a few pages in a website you can know whether it is a static or dynamic website. Please share your experience.
 
Any help will be appreciated.
Thank you.

Hi Andrey,

Hi Andrey,

I see it looks like a 'commercial' server a la godaddy and its ilk. These are rarely dynamic since the server needs an interpreter to render web programming languages such as ASP, PHP etc. It is still possible to produce 'dynamic' pages however by using jQuery, Javascript, HTML5/CSS3 since the routines for running these are built into modern browsers. It really depends on exactly what you want to do! However to query databases for example you will need a dedicated server. Commercial 'do-it-yourself' site builders are not usually equipped for this, for various reasons.
