Does ColdFusion actually have its own RDBMS? I thought CF was a server-side processing language like PHP and the like? Maybe post some of code from your CF app (the part with the connection details) so we can see what you're connecting to and how.
Is there such thing as a "ColdFusion" database? I think not. I'm sure the database that ColdFusion pulls from is probably a MSSQL server. In that case PHP can use an ODBC bridge to connect to that.

I was presuming that CF draws from MySQL or MSSQL. Since I don't know anything about CF I wasn't exactly sure how to pose the question.

I hope that this is the case - will check into the ODBC bridging process.
Find out which RDBMS your CF app connects to (and if you can, look at the app's connection string). Then post back here or search these forums for 'Connect PHP to <insert_your_db_server_here>'.
