Passing R code from webpage

R doesn't care how you generate the pages - it will be just processing requests that you define on such pages. Think of it as serving R scripts by a web server - it doesn't matter how you construct the URLs/requests that reference it.

BTW: since you mentioned CSHTML  --- you'll lose a lot of benefits on Windows, so if you think of using Windows as a server, think twice ;). Pretty much all scalable solutions assume you are using unix. On Windows you'll need a pool of R instances if you want to have some illusion of scalability so it's a lot more involved and wasteful.
