Not directly, no. You can call a JavaScript function with the onClick command, but not a PHP function.
But here's what I've done when I needed to do something like that. Create a separate page for the function, like function.php. Then in the anchor tag in your main page (call it index.php), call that page... e.g., < a href="function.php >click me for a function< /a >, passing parameters either in the URL or by cookies. Your function page might look something like this: <?php {insert data into db here} header("Location: index.php"); ?> In other words, in function.php, the code does the function and then immediately issues a redirect command to send the user back to the page where they started. You could also include the function in the code for index.php, and simply have the anchor tag link back to index.php, passing parameters via your favorite parameter passing technique.
