Hi, first, sorry about my english.

i am a beginner with php and i have some question about writing files using php in a shared hosting. is a risk?, use database to store data is a better way? i just want make an interface (in php) that write the data in a .html extension file to show to everybody the html page and just the php interface is to the content manager.

thanks in advance

Provided it's coded in specific ways, no it's not a major risk. Why not use an existing content management system rather than building it yourself.. or is that the real purpose?
