external data table

hi everybody,

I posted my message here last time when I was just beginning to build my web site. A few weeks later.....I have some more complicated (for me) question.

My site (html+css) is made up of articles each one containing also an exchange rate table for the main world currencies. The articles are updated almost daily and so is each table. The main web page containes approx. 10 articles and tables. Now the question: is it possible, in order to keep my site as light as possible, to keep the tables elsewhere (they are around 3kb each) but at the same time have them show up at the same time as a visitor checks the site, basically as if they where still in the html code?

I had a look at mysql. It's all doubledutch to me. I'm no programmer and I learn as I go.

Any idea?
Thanks

MySQL is a good choice. The SQL grammer is quite small (easy to learn). I picked up the basics in just a few days. You can browse "SQL for Dummies" at your local bookstore and check it out.

Ooops.. I just noticed that we're posting in the inroductions forum. Maybe someone who has the power will move it to techie talk..

You will need a database attached to your site. There are no other options that I know of.

However, you may be better off posting a question in one of the Web Development forums as they would have more experience in this area.
