It's currently in PHP.
The reason for this is historical: for many years, the FPC webserver was hosted on an Alpha architecture machine. FPC didn't (and does not) support Alpha. So PHP was needed.

Now FPC is hosted again on an intel machine. We could switch back to FPC. Plans exist for this, the main missing thing is time...

Hi,

there is nothing curiuos. I also use FPC to program CGI websites. I has one advantage: i use Windows in my work and there is almost no need of additional effort to port FPC programs to Linux server.
