Trivial. All my web pages include it. The variables are all set by an outside process. Re CF server & Web server. It's "on the wire" (using sockets). You're going up & down the stacks just as if you're using a wire except for the last 2 levels (ip & above stacks are used). And only the smallest shops would consider having a web server and CF (or db) server on the same box. No scalability or easy recovery from failure. Heck, I run a tiny little ISP out of my basement, and have all major services segregated onto different machinery with 1000baseT private net between the different boxes (db & search services, DNS resolvers, web servers, mail server, and backup array).
