do it with python
I think you find something you want to use at
http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/gallery.html
http://docs.python.org/
I would write the app for an existing other web application e.g. for
MoinMoin a wiki software (http://moinmo.in) as plugin because I can use
then all the security builtin of this software for sharing my data with
others.
ION development is not ongoing
It is not safe to run pure idl on a web server. And to get php safe is
also difficult.

I looked into this briefly once, but never got much further than the
state you're at now though :) I think you have two other options -
you could use the IDL-Java bridge, or you could do something like what
you mentioned - have php run idl and swap info back and forth. Henry
Throop's New Horizons Geometry Visualizer does this: http://soc.boulder.swri.edu/nhgv/
There used to be a link on the ittvis webpage from a talk he gave at
an idl user's group meeting about how he did it, but i couldn't find
the talk :(
