battlebot Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 Hi all! Im using server side javascript to move a small gif image around at random on our site login page but it seems like it slows down client browsers a bit. Can i do the same thing using PHP and would it use less client cpu power? You can see the floating image here: http://www.ghostadventures.net Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeanWhitehouse Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 Not with PHP alone, try looking at ajax, or maybe a css based alternative Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
printf Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 PHP is a server side application, so it cannot help make a client side applications faster. The only option you have is to place the JavaScript you currently have on your page in a file and include it in your page. That way most clients will cache the file localy, which will speed up the page loading process. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
