execute php function on user event without javascript
<p>I assume the answer is: "it is not possible because php is server language not client language", but I would like someone more expert than me to state this and eventually list all possible workarounds...</p>

<p><b>Question</b>: is it (at all) possible to have a php function executed (only) when the user "clicks" or perfomrs some other kind of action (e.g. mouse-over) in an html page <b>without</b> using any javascript?</p>

<p>(P.S. As a workaround I considered to access an intermediate page containing the php code to be executed when the client action occurs and then redirect as needed but this is not straightforward as far as passing the results of the php code.)</p>
