Firstly, you are mentioning multiple programming languages here.
Javascriptis a client side language (which means it will run straight from the user’s device).PHPis a server side scripting language (which means you have no control of the code, and it must be run on a server).Secondly, from my knowledge, it’s not yet possible to have access to a device’s camera using Javascript in a browser. You will have to make use of a device’s native functions. I recommend reading about PhoneGap library. PhoneGap will simplify what you want to do, and will reduce the amount of learning time you will need to spend writing an app for each device, as code is very similar across multiple platforms.
