PHP flat file vs DB for a small website

Posted by Peter on 10/12/06 20:58

Greetings,

I'm having trouble deciding on whether to go with a flat file or DB
driven architecture for a wee personal website. I'd like to be able to
update HTML files online and this is my only requirement.

Flat Files:
advantage: attach some PHP code at the top of each file that allows the
file to be opened and edited
disadvantage: the files would have to be writeable

DB:
advantage: more secure
disadvantage: allot of overhead

Would anyone have any advice?

PS: I was originally planning to use a CMS but found that no CMS was
customizable enough with little effort for a basic small website -
strang eh :)
