You are trying to call a javascript function. If you want to call a PHP function, you have to use for example a form:

    <form action="action_page.php">
       First name:<br>
       <input type="text" name="firstname" value="Mickey">
       <br>
       Last name:<br>
       <input type="text" name="lastname" value="Mouse">
       <br><br>
       <input type="submit" value="Submit">
     </form>

(Original Code from: http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_forms.asp)

So if you want do do a asynchron call, you could use 'Ajax' - and yeah, that's the Javascript-Way. But I think, that my code example is enough for this time :)
