What is different about The Citizen’s Web site?

Our site has been converted from a static site to one that is dynamic, or database driven. The static site consisted of thousands of html-coded pages powered by links. In other words, if you wanted a page, you had to find a live hyperlink to that particular page on our Web server. Now, clicking on a hyperlink places a “call” to a database engine, which then serves up the requested item, whether document or image, from the innards of the database itself and not from a stack of electronic pages. The served item goes to a predetermined box within a standard template, making life a lot simpler for many of us humans who until now had to create each and every static page as a separate html document and load it onto our server.
