Have you looked at West-Wind Web Connection? It sounds like it fits your need perfectly. As much as VFP really could and it has been battle tested for years.
* It has scripting support built in. * In COM mode, it self monitors the COM objects and would kill any that have hung up. * It runs optimally with two COM instances per CPU in the server.
