Mmh, putting R on a web server is not much different from putting it on an other
linux installation. The question is  probably more how to get R to work. RPad is
a  package that works, but as far as I remember the focus is on flexibility for
Intranets, with high risks when used in the wild. If you want to run some
specialized tasks only with fixed code, you could try our phpSerialize, which
can run in the wild if your php code is ok, but it is by design not end-user
flexible.
