I need to be able to provide the following functionality within a web site:



client defined colour scheme (immediately)

multi-lingual capability (within a one month time period)



Now would having the asp pages pull the required information from the SQL

database produce too much of a server load on a potentially very busy site

and if so what effect would this have on the site.



If the above is true what other ways could the two needed options be done?



Thank you in advance for any help or suggestions.

  :: when your work speaks for itself :: keep quiet ::

It is not a good idea to store lot of information into

database. If I were you, I would create a control

template that catch user's choice of language ( either

by catch country info automatically or by storing

user's choice in cookie) and redirect to pages in

different language. If dynamic data involved, you may

have to store them into tables. But you need to find

ways to minimize connections to database because they

are slow.
