Hi Gareth,
What you want to do is more of a Javascript/web project. The ImageJ part
could certainly be done by running Fiji in headless mode on the server
side. But it is a non-trivial project because you have to integrate several
pieces together.
1) Get the ImageJ workflow working locally in headless mode.
http://imagej.net/Headless2) Create a web page that behaves as you describe, triggering server-side
processing code that invokes ImageJ as a separate process, and waits for it
to complete. There are dozens of Javascript (and other language) web
frameworks to choose from.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_JavaScript_frameworksYou might also be interested in Volker Baecker's paper on a very similar
topic:
Baecker, V., and P. Travo. "Remote ImageJ-running macros on a distant
machine." *Proceedings of the ImageJ User and Developer Conference 2010*.
