Is it possible to put a datadriven site all in CD? How would the connections work etc?

Thanks
 
You could do it, But I THINK you'd need to create an install program that copies the DB to the users HD & installs the ODBC.

I'm Sorry, But that's out of my league.
You'll have to ask a propper Programer how to do that!!

I can't think of any other way of getting round it. ----------------------------------------

You cannot have an ODBC connection on a CD, as the ODBC needs to exist on the clients machine.
there are some options though. There is a product called CFAnywhere available with JRUN from Allaire that is a JAVA based ColdFusion emulator that you can put on a CD and thus have dynamic database driven content.
