billcarson2 Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 I am considering to add a form beneath some of my web pages which would allow visitors to add some comments. Normally, this would be done by sending the info to a mysql database, however, my web host does not supply a database. As I don't expect a lot of response, I thought of just opening the html file when someone adds a comments and pasting the text directly in the html document instead of storing them in a database. My question: is this a bad idea? (I mean, no one else does it, so there must be some drawback to this method, no?)

AMcHarg Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 Well it would work if very few people were adding comments but it's not a very dynamic way of doing it.
