If you are willing to stick with ONE webserver, you could use the apache
module API. Of course, this is kind of low level, but combining it with
some libraries like e.g. PCRE (depending on what you actually need), it
could be useful.
If you are interested in webservices, there's Axis for C, see here:
http://ws.apache.org/axis2/c/
But, generally speaking, most of the time there's no real reason to use
a low level language like C for these things. There's already a wide
variety of languages/platforms made especially for web- and enterprise
applications, including PHP, but if you are looking for alternatives,
maybe consider C# with ASP.NET or Java/JSP or even Ruby, perl (mod_perl
for apache), python, ...
