Answer Wiki:
In summary, you will have to move to at least Forms 9i (well, you can move your forms to the web with 6i as well), and you will need an application server. Depending on the type of operations the form performs, it could be as easy as re-compiling it, but most of the times some modifications are needed to make it work <b>well </b>on the web.

It is not something that can be written in a few lines here.

Steps:

-Buy the appropriate licenses
-Upgrade your database
-Install the new version of Forms
-Install and configure the application server
-Review each form, to determine what modification ti needs.

For each step you will need to go to the official documentation to find detailed instructions. Moving your 6i forms to the web is not something that can be done with a simple “how-to” guide. It is a project you need to plan carefully, and you will need to read a lot.

If you don’t have the appropriate knowledge, I would recommend considering contracting a consultant to do guide you.
