Depends on the design.

If you've got your site setup to allow it, you could just run a web mirroring
program such as wget over it and use the saved HTML. You'll want to set your
site up so that instead of having a structure like /page.php?DBID=321 it has
something like /db/321.html where none of the HTML files really exist but are
intercepted by a script.

It's more work to setup but the other alternative is writing a little export
program that generates a page per row in your database. This is handy if you
want to automate the export process so you have dynamic content but lower
load on the server.
