Teddy one thought though is maybe I run just this application on a shared server. Do you know if there is a way to access a remote "MySQL" database (one running on the linux server) with CF? Could an DSN be made on the shared server that could update the MySQL database which resides on a remote server on a different network?
I have not worked with MySQL before but something tells me that I think I remember researching this once and determining it couldn't be done. Thanks for your previous reply and any suggestions you may have.

You don't have to budget for the CF license then. Is the client firm on the fact that the Linux server must house the site?

The problem is that the dedicated server he has is a Linux server and does not have CF on it. Of course I know CF will run fine on a linux server but since there is no budget to purchase a license for it, I assumed I would need to rethink it and do this with PHP. However, then I though Blue Dragon maybe? Could anyone tell me if my thoughts are worth researching more? Will Blue Dragon allow me to develop my app with my local cf server then move to his server where I install Blue Dragon on it? Do you think I will run into headaches and issues with this approach. Thanks ahead of time for any advice I get.
