R help - Jun 2011 - Access R functions from web

I need a way to send R objects and call R functions from web. Is there any
project close or similar to that?

I want to be able to send an HTTP rquest from an existing application with
some data. And obtain a plot from R.

Thanks in advance

This should be a faq but it can take a while to find, see Rserve and Rapache.
I have been using Rapache now on red hat and debian  and it works nicely.
Also, the goog visualization API works in some limited testing but apparently
a lot of that requires flash ( which I either did not have or had turned off
LOL).

This is one of the typical integration scenarios
the R Service Bus is able to cope with.

The REST interface is documented here
