Hi Trevor,

It's using mySQL right now, but I could use any SQL based database.

I'm not sure of the server configuration. The app allows you to select an image of a certain size or sizes and then it looks it shows other images from the database with a "compatible" size. For example:

The user selects ImageA, this image is available in (say) 3 sizes 512, 1024 and 2048. It will then search the database and find images that have the same sizes. It's a little more complex then that, but thats really the core of it.

This works just fine "in house", but now they want to make it available over the web so anyone can go to the page and do the same thing. There is no authentication in terms of getting a User ID or Password.

At first I was thinking that you just wanted to connect your Rev app to the internet but it appears you want to convert this to a web browser GUI.

I haven't done any Rev CGI apps but I'm guessing that the only thing you can keep from your original project would be the data layer (SQL calls). I would think that everything else (GUI, connecting data to GUI) has to be redone to output HTML. How long this will take really depends on the size of the app and what languages you know and have available on your web server.
