PhP event handling

[Kestrell_Kestre]

Does php have any way of handling events? Like when the user presses a button on the page is there any way to have a php function called instead of javascript?

No, because PHP is running on the server and not on the client, and so has no idea what's going on out there in the outside world.

If you need PHP code to execute, then you'll need Javascript event handlers that call PHP scripts via form submissions or similar requests.
