Answer 1

If you do not want to include the jquery library you can simple do the following

a) ad an iframe, size 0px so it is not visible, href is blank

b) execute this within your js code function

 window.frames['iframename'].location.replace('http://....your . php');

This will execute the php script and you can for example make a database update...
