获取服务器信息

Question

I'm new to web development and I'm always thrilled about what can be done. Some days ago testing an account with Zopim I remain impressed about a function they have called connection quality, the popup is full of useful informations such connection quality, progress, session uptime, latency, server local time etc. I post a picture to be clear. My questions are:

• Is safe to display such informations to the end user?
• I'm learning PHP, could PHP do a same thing, or this informations are retrieved by something more near to the OS? If so I would like to know more to study and begin testing some code locally.

Thanks

Answer 1

yes its safe. it will show your user about connection in advance.

i dont think so if PHP can do it, and its look like near OS, maybe you need to mix PHP with other programming language such as Perl or Python. commonly used in server programming.
