It is a political issue rather than a financial one I'm afraid. [sigh]
Actually, it is also a practical one, in that she has zero experience 
with scripting (and I mean *zero*) and she wants to do the project 
herself rather than me do it and her not know anything about it. I 
wouldn't ask anyone, let alone my nearest+dearest, to launch straight 
into MySQL from a standing start! Revolution with simple scripting 
and stack structure, yes; MySQL, no. Not yet, anyway. :-)

It couldn't (yet) be done using an external server (although I'm 
fairly confident that this is how it will work in the long term), and 
the internal IT management issue (political again) means it won't be 
something set up within the network either. Again: yet.

Thanks for the info on the Dreamhost feature for limiting SQL access 
by IP address. That's achievable using PHP anyway, but it is handy to 
know of services which deal with this sort of thing for you.
