How to check if Javascript is enabled or not in browser using PHP?

Question

I need to check from server side if client machine is Javascript enabled or not.
Is it possible in PHP? If it is, how?

Ajax call to the server on page load. If the call happens, javascript is enabled. — arao6, Dec 16 '14 at 07:18
It's possible using AJAX as arao wrote, I have another question. Why you need to know that on server? I mean you what to solve something what should be solved better without this knowledge. — pavel, Dec 16 '14 at 07:19

Why in earth do you want to do this with PHP ? Use javascript itself, or even `HTML` `noscript` tag — Alireza Fallah, Dec 16 '14 at 07:21

Try using ajax from client, if it works then javascript is enabled

With jQuery you can simply:

$.ajax({
    url: "/checkjavascript.php"
});

if your php receives call from client then Javascript is enabled in the client
