Program for generating HTML files

Postby garrettgjb » Sun May 31, 2009 10:45 pm

I'm developing a site that needs to have a main static HTML file. I would like to have this static HTML file generated once everyday. I have read that sites like digg do this because of the number of database calls. So does anyone know of a free way to do this?

Thanks.

I don't think that's quite what I'm looking for because I just want a new html file to be generated at 12am everyday.

Actually I think I figured out how to do it.
I'll use crond to run a PHP file to generate the html files. Cant believe I didn't think of it sooner.
