why opt for photo data base?

Can anyone tell me what the advantage of a (say php) photo database over a
webalbum (just html) would be?

Hi,

None at all, unless you want to be able to change the photos/description/etc
belonging to each photo.
If you can do this by hand (because you understand how in HTML): just do it
like that.

If you use some scriptinglanguage (like PHP) and a database, you could get
the advantage of searching and such.

But if it is just basic photos, and you know how to html, stick with that.
;-)

So it depends on what you want to do with it.

Regards,
Erwin Moller

If you only have a few pictures use HTML but beyond that it is just
unnecessarily tedious. Using PHP a mildly skilled programmer could
make a simple photo host in under an hour that would be far more
adaptable and expandable then any you could make with HTML. Also
usually when your the kind of person who wants to host pictures you
also will want to in the future and you don't what to be stuck
modifying 100 HTML pages with the new images.
