Sorry its been awhile, I've been busy on other things.
I think Infinity.adf is my homesite project file. I still use Homesite
4.5 for hand coding asp files.

Couple of comments.

As far as header.asp goes, this was just a proof of concept that you can
have each state of a module be stored as pure html in a separate file
and the main class can include what it wants depending on the state. If
your objection is the fact that it is a header, I agree, we are better
server rendering the base layout, template/header/footer in its own
class.

You added support for returning rows to cDBConnection. I was abstracting
the Recordset handling in cDBDataReader. The usage was demonstrated in
the BuildPage method of cPage. I was trying to mimic ADO.net and
abstract the ADO specific code. Another advantage of abstracting the
methods, is that any major changes only need to be made in one file

I am kind of against API.asp. At the very least they should be contained
within a class as that should be a goal of the design. I see no reason
they need to be standalone.

cConfiguration is not live in memory and that's the beauty of it. It is
a class and will only come into memory when initialized. Afterward it
goes out of memory. If we do make it lookup values from a DB or properly
structured XML file, it only need lookup and store values for that
particular page.

I'm not sure what your point about the Connection String was. I do know
we need to abstract the DB from each module, but that's a TBD item.

What in the engine are you looking to complete or design. When you say
engine, do you mean the rendering engine, what loads and maintains each
module instance.=20
