Hey,  
Right now my site has about 175 pages and they are all in .html format. I was thinking about switching to a database driven site so I need to convert the pages to .php in order for database to run. Would it be alright if I make my future pages in .php and after a while switch to a database program. Thanks a lot.

And also what database program is good for a website. I want something reliable and good. Thanks.
