You aren't connecting the RFID reader to php. You're querying the OS
for the data that the reader has scanned. That depends on the OS, the
reader, the driver and how it's connected to your system. I haven't
done any USB programming and don't know how or what RFID readers appear
to a system.
http://www.sparkfun.com/products/8628
says that the USB card appears as a serial output. So, I'm guessing
that you'd have to open() the serial port created by USB reader. So buy
the hardware, hook it up to your system, see if you can access the USB
reader through php's open(), then see if the card will send you the tags.
Sounds like a fun MAKER project. Enjoy.
