 It's an easy job if I can load my php code to the server, unfortunately 
 I cannot. The IT department only allows me to edit via the wiki 
 interface but not access the server side. 
That's pretty heavy-handed.

Can you run it from a workgroup server, or even your boss's desktop machine? Or does
IT have the keys to ALL the computers?

I'd think a machine on your LAN would be adequately firewalled to make IT feel better
about it.

extension. 
Those would be my choices.

See if your boss has enough "pull" to run a well-firewalled
"development" server on your LAN for such things.
