In Lazarus byte array can be declared in the following way:
Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]window.onload = function(){var x1 =
document.getElementById("main_content_section"); if (x1) { var x =
document.getElementsByClassName("geshi");for (var i = 0; i const
 myArray: array of byte = ($41,$43,$45,$45,$49,$53,$55,$55,$5A,$61,$63
,$65,$65,$69,$73,$75,$75,$7A);However LAMW fails to compile this code
and throws error:
QuoteFatal: Syntax error, ";" expected but "ordinal const" found
The workaround solution for this LAMW bug is to declare byte array as:
Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]window.onload = function(){var x1 =
document.getElementById("main_content_section"); if (x1) { var x =
document.getElementsByClassName("geshi");for (var i = 0; i const
 myArray: array [0..17] of byte = ($41,$43,$45,$45,$49,$53,$55,$55,$5A
,$61,$63,$65,$65,$69,$73,$75,$75,$7A);

Don't you always have to declare lenght of array [0..n]?

You need to use FPC 3.2.0 or newer. I don't know about LAMW, but at
least for the FPC project 3.0.4 and older are no longer considered
supported.
