Sorry, but I can't give out my code, but...

Google is your friend...

All the Indy Intraweb demos (free) can be found at 

http://iwdemos.codeplex.com/

Arcana Elite Suite (free) can be found at:

http://code.google.com/p/iwelite/downloads/list

The Apache web server can be downloaded (free) from:

http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi

You run your IW app as an ISAPI dll in Apache.

You can also run IW apps on Microsoft IIS, but I don't know how you do that. 
I've heard you use ISAPI there too.

IW apps can be run as a stand-alone EXE. They make a small web server that can 
run on a PC. There are some severe limitations with this approach, so I don't 
recommend stand-alone mode for anything other than a hobby project or as a 
prototype for an ISAPI DLL.

MySQL can be downloaded (free, with strings attached...) from:

http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/

You should also download either the MySQL Workbench or the (obsolete) MySQL GUI 
tools to manage the database. I prefer the old GUI tools, but that is a 
personal preference.

You need some components to talk to MySQL. ZeosLib works pretty good (very 
fast) and is free. It is a pain to install the Zeoslib components though.

MyDAC you have to pay for but is as fast as Zeos and is probably more stable. 
It comes with an installer that works great.

ZeosLib (free) can be found at:

http://zeos.firmos.at/portal.php

If you want to pay for some good MySQL components try:

http://www.devart.com/mydac/

I recommend you don't use the dbExpress components that come with Delphi. I 
have not had much luck with them on high performance client-server applications.

If you want some nicer web grids ($$$) that work in Intraweb apps, try the TMS 
IW grids:

http://www.tmssoftware.com/site/tmsiwpro.asp

You *can* do Intraweb grids with just the Indy code (free), but they look 
pretty clunky. 

Anyway, I gotta get back to writing code. :-) I hope this helps you and any 
lurkers.

Best regards,

Kevin G. McCoy
