Some reasons: * Free Pascal is open source (always available and no vendor lock-in) * Free Pascal is free, so can always use latest version at NO cost. * Previous skills from Delphi 7 project can be reused. No need to retrain developers. Saving 1000's in cost. * Previous business domain code can be reused. Saving hundreds of hours in development time. * No runtime or VM is required to run apps (unlike PHP, C# or Java). * Development tools are free and again open source. > Exists a project open source, in Pascal, here in Brazil.

I know of many developers or companies using ExtPascal to write web apps. I unfortunately have not looked at it yet. I started our CGI apps long before I found out about ExtPascal. -- Regards, - Graeme - _______________________________________________ fpGUI - a cross-platform Free Pascal GUI toolkit http://opensoft.homeip.net/fpgui/ _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
