Use PHP to open the serial device and send whatever you want.

It has been done.
Try google -> PHP Apache mod -> sourceforge.org for linux PHP to serial comm packs.

Is there a PHP function to do this?? If so, what is it?? I've tried googling with limited success, except for Java based solution which I dislike (or need to learn more about jave ;)
