You need Javascript. The API is entirely Javascript.

What you may be able to do is use your server-side PHP script to
create a static map URL that you put in the <div> which is to be used
for the dynamic map. Clients without Javascript will get a static map
[which won't do anything interactive, but is better than nothing] and
clients with Javascript will get the dynamic map.

<div id="map" style="...">
If you were running Javascript you would see an interactive map
here<br>
<img src="...">
</div>
