Coldfusion & PHP Site Possible?

I've been building a site with a small gallery in a MYSqul database, using PHP in Dreamweaver CS3. I'm now wanting to add credit card acceptance (via a donations page) and I'm thinking of buying Cartweaver to help me out. I know Cartweaver supports PHP, besides Coldfusion, but most of the Cartweaver educational training I've found is Coldfusion.

Is it possible to build a Dreamweaver site using PHP and Coldfusion? I'm confused about the possibility of using two server technologies in one site.??? In Dreamweaver's Site Definition, it appears as if only server technology can be selected. Is that true? And, if so, is there any way around this?

    You can have PHP and CF running on the same box. Install CF as you normally would and then go in and install PHP (or vice versa, doesn't matter).

    Your httpd will route cfml pages to CF and php pages to PHP. Works great.

    Not sure how you'd deal with DW though.
