Why not go the whole way and back to comand line? <g> Browser based is pretty dire unless you use Flash but that's not the easiest. If your app makes use of multiple windows or string grids, it will be an interesting time (as in the old Chinese curse- may your life be interesting).
As well as Delphi I do php and C# (which is very much the new Delphi- wash my mouth out). The debugging tools for browser based apps aren't great compared to Delphi though C# looks promising for debugging. I'd drop php for C# if windows hosting wasn't so expensive compared to Linux. You could use isapi (a delphi written dll - it runs in apache or IIS web servers). If you want to find out more about isapi- look at http://www.matlus.com/scripts/website.dll - It runs on isapi- the whole site is delphi powrered.
