Is this a web app? ie a browser based client? I'd use PHP and AJAX 
(which is what Delphi for PHP uses)
If you want "roll your own" look at this ajax lib 
http://www.ajaxtoolbox.com/request/

 From the way your expressing yourself (ie SOAP) I think you are looking 
at a Fat client talking to a Web Server
backend and unless you have extreme graphics requirement at the client I 
wouldn't bother

It would be easier to advise if we knew more

HTH
