As the person who kicked this thread off in the first place, I have to say I'm still confused.
My original question was about whether we'd be able to produce standalone working apps, and I think several answers attempted to answer it, but I dont think I fully grasped the implications. Here's two scenarios - can we use this new CF7 to meet these needs ... [Scenario A] A trade show. We want to hand out samples of our work to visitors to the booth. Just give them CDs of some sample sites, showing the benefits of what we can do - dynamic sites, shopping carts, whatever. They'll need to put a CD into their PC and see the sample sites work. I kind of get the idea that wont work unless they already have J2EE installed on their PC? Yes? [ Scenario B] We develop a small app. We sell the app, and send them a CD, which they would put into their PC and run the app from the CD. Examples of this could be a single-person training application or a perhaps something like the file libraries that appear on the front of magazines (but we wouldn't be putting it on magazines). That wouldn't work either because the users would all have to have J2EE running? Have I got this right? And if J2EE is a requirement, would it be possible to put that stuff on the CD too, and have it self-install somehow or perhaps run from the CD?
