Q: Architecture of an Oracle web application

Greetings from an Oracle newbie.
I currently have a three-tier application which uses the IE browser on the
client,
downloads active server pages to it, uses Microsoft's IIS in the middle,
and
accesses MS SQL Server on the back-end via ADO, RDO, ODBC, ad nauseum.
Mandate: recreate the application supporting Netscape browser, Java, ???Webserver in the middle, and Oracle on the back-end. AND try to do it with as platform-independent an architecture as possible, which to me means confine PL/SQL to the back-end where it belongs.
Question: For those of us who are already doing this, what are the major software components being used, and how to they interplay. I'm ready to hear at length about CORBA and objects being created in the middle tier, but I don't want to hear about PL/SQL in my browser.
Thanks in advance for any input!
