No, that's not what I meant. I meant an internal network with an 
application specific server used by many clients.

Sure, for me it's easier to develop a rich native client with lazarus, 
but I wouldn't mind if, just for *some* specific cases, lazarus allowed 
me to easily develop a full fledged web application, independent from 
any external server. It seems that the infrastructure is mostly there 
(fcl-web, pas2js, etc.) it "just"[*] needs some support from the ide 
(that's what this poll was about, right?).
