Server-side

Server-side

Server-side dynamic content is a little bit more complicated.

1. The browser sends an HTTP request.
2. The server retrieves the requested script or program.
3. The server executes the script or program which typically outputs an HTML web page. The program usually obtains input from the query string or standard input which may have been obtained from a submitted web form.
4. The server sends the HTML output to the client's browser.

Server-side has many possibilities for dynamic content, but the use of it can be a strain on low-end, high-traffic machines. Some web sites use the Robots Exclusion Standard to keep web crawlers from accessing dynamic pages for this reason. If not properly secured, server-side scripts could be exploited to gain access to a machine
