Re: is this not possible?

No... Javascript need to send that data back to the server and how are you going to do that? You will have to use a form or a link or some method to send it to the server. Now you can use php to write your javascript code that can be used to link to a php file that can be run on the client side which will then access the server... but you are really talking about to things here server-side (php) and client-side (javascript)...
