I know that Sigbjorn has a binding for the W3C libraries, but I think that only works
for GHC.

That (Lambada) is being worked on.

There are several options already:
* you could use Haskell to do old-fashioned CGI scripting (probably too slow)
* you could use HaskellScript embedded in ASP (works with IIS, I have not tried
ChiliSoft, which claims to have a full implementation of ASP and COM for Unix that
runs under Apache)
* when Lambada is debugged you can use Java servlets calling Haskell (easy)
in the somewhat longer run (the following are assignments for my forthcomming Internet
Programming Class):
* use Java Server Pages calling Haskell
* use mod-Haskell under Apache
