Use browser to send modbus command

I've got some piece of hardware that uses ModbusRTU. Using a TCP/IP Gateway for ModbusRTU I can now control the hardware using my C# application over TCP/IP. This works.

Now I would like to control it with my android phone. Yes, I could make an Android app, what should be no problem for me, but I want to make it more special for myself to fix it with the web browser. That way I'm even more flexible since other OS's should be no problem too.

I'm interested where I should start looking if I want to control the hardware by using the web browser. What programming language, what are the server requirements. Please mind that I've have very little experience with web browser programming but I'm eager to learn it. Did just some very simple things with PHP / Ajax.

Fyi, the ModbusTCP packeds are really simple, I only control some lights on/off/dimming at my home and to enable some equipment.

I am currently playing with the Marmalade Quick beta which can open a TCP port in Lua. This is a simple high level language, with a build system for Android.

Which Modbus lighting controller are you using?
