I have succesfully developed such (big) projects in Lazarus:
Server side is Lazarus (more specific: fcl-web and the webdata/json-rpc modules)
Client side is ExtJS - but JQuery, qooxdoo or dojo (or whatever the hype is these days) would work equally well.

There are various technologies available to work with the web in Lazarus.

All have in common that they are built on top of fcl-web.
