JavaScript will allow you to make your pages a little more dynamic.

How about a server side scripting language like Perl or PHP.

Both of these are designed to run on the web server to generate HTML on the fly. This enables you to create dynamic web pages similar to the one you are looking at now.

The best thing about server side scripting is that you don't have to worry about what browser your user is using. Unlike client side scripting languages such as VBScript and Javascript which rely on the browser supporting it.

The following is an example of a typical PHP script called heading.php:
<html>
<body>
<?php
for ($x = 1; $x <= 6; $x++) {
echo ("<h$x>This is size $x heading.</h$x>\n");
}
?>
</body>
</html>

Produces the following HTML for the web browser:
<html>
<body>
<h1>This is size 1 heading.</h1>
<h2>This is size 2 heading.</h2>
<h3>This is size 3 heading.</h3>
<h4>This is size 4 heading.</h4>
<h5>This is size 5 heading.</h5>
<h6>This is size 6 heading.</h6>
</body>
</html>
