In order to do ANYTHING on the client computer, you need a CLIENT-
SIDE program. PHP is handled completely SERVER-SIDE, so no, this
cannot be done in PHP (unless, of course, the client and the server are
the same machine).
You'll be wanting to look into javascript or something more of that flavor.
Good luck...
