I've seen plenty of Scripting solutions for Delphi.   Google pascal
scripting control or something along those lines... 

To make Pascal relevant (on the web) - all that's needed is some built-in
components that allow interpreted code on the fly.  It's not hard for
servers to include server side support for this type of thing.  

Personally, I think to really compete with Java, we should develop a
scripting system that actually compiles into Object Code so we're not
messing with interpreted code at runtime which should yield the quickest
execution times.  I would love to see this in the next few years.  

Now what I'd really like to see is an extended WYSIWYG editor for Pascal on
the web for content generation!  That would probably take some serious
effort though.

On desktop application, it already does a tough rival to Java, besides 
wxWidgets.

But on web application, FPC/Lazarus is still far behind Java. GWT add 
more distance. FPC's CGI framework (if it's done) or project like PWU 
would subtract the distance, but not much.

Morfik is the way to make FPC/Lazarus becomes a potential tough rival to 
Java on web application. Unfortunately, it's closed and commercial. :(
