I'm not sure what you want to get out of putting your app on the web.
It seems like you're using the various office apps as a pseudo-web
site but you don't mention to what end.

If you're trying to just put some sort of index of  office docs on the
web, you can do that in just about anything and I'd actually recommend
PHP because it's simple and available on commodity hosting. Just
search through the manual to find the function that does what you want
and call it.

If you're trying to migrate a larger portion of your functionality
onto a web site, *don't* use PHP. PHP sucks for app development. I
personally like TurboGears and Django. Which I use for a particular
project depends on how much I can get out of Django's automatic admin
interface. I use Django for stuff that looks more like an online
newspaper/blog and TurboGears for stuff where I'm doing a lot of forms
processing or working off a legacy db or heavy json calling.

I'd possibly consider Pylons as well but I'm happy with the TG/Django
pair. I avoid the Zope/Plone due to the developer learning curve
(sorry zopistas) and the rest of the packages you've listed are pieces
rather than a whole solution.
