php Detect if html5 play button pressed

Question

In PHP can I detect if the play button is pressed when the html5 audio player opens from a hyperlink

        $line = "<a href=\"$namehref\"><font color='blue'>$name</font></a>";
        echo $line;

Answer 1

PHP is a server-side language that does not have access to client-side events such as clicking on an HTML5 play button.
