Following web standards means to optimize the workflow, keeping structure and style separate. The structure of a page is the logic organization of the elements that will host a website’s content.

The structure is a page’s XHTML skeleton. Style, on the other hand, is the way in which such structure is rendered graphically. According to a user’s or a browser’s needs, the same structure can be visualized in different ways, thanks to style sheets.

There is, however, a third level of separation, that of content itself, which is not stored “on the page,” but in a dedicated database. Thanks to PHP, content is generated dynamically and on demand, which separates the concept of web page from that of file, and minimizes the number of files necessary for a website to work.

Communikitchen has chosen MySQL, the world’s most widely used open-source database system.
