No, Per is correct.
PHP itself cannot access anything on the client. It is a server-parsed
language. The client never executes PHP, period.
Javascript, other applets, etc. can *inform* or push information to
PHP about the client or files on the client, but PHP itself has no
idea what is going on other than $_SERVER, $_COOKIE vars and whatnot
identifying the browser. That's all it gets without something else
"helping" it, and that is still not -PHP- itself.
