i am wondering if there is a good way to trigger a php script from a web page *without* sending the user to a new page or opening a new browser windows.
for instance, suppose you wanted to make a button/link on a web page
that, when clicked, would cause a database entry to be decremented. however, you do not want to refresh the page or open a popup window or
any stinky little tricks like that.
Use a virtual include to call the php script.
or, if this is not possible, does anyone know how to trigger a php
script when someone accesses a particular file from an apache server? or if a file from a particular directory is downloaded...
I don't think you can do that unless the php script is used to access the file or perform the download you speak of.
cheers,
Travis
