Dynamic website on CD. How's it done?

[Newsgroup_User]

Is there a way to put a dynamic website on a CD for distribution that
doesn't require a web server? It's easy to do with a static site but
how does one accomplish such a thing with a dynamic site (PHP/MySQL)?

One way is to use our Site Import tool, which converts dynamic sites to
HTML. Basically, it re-writes your dynamic links (like product.php?id=23) to
an HTML link (i.e., product_php_id_23.htm) and on that page, writes out the
rendered HTML content. There is no server-side code output. You can learn
more at

We just, by the way, released a new version, 3.0, so the product is on
special for the next couple of weeks.
