The function above is a javascript function. No need to reload the
page, however you can do that if you want to. Otherwise, innerHTML does
the job.

I think you need to find someone who speaks your language and better
English and have them compose the post for you. I simply cannot
understand what you are trying to say or do. Sorry.
However, I will say this much:
php only gets the value one of three ways:
1 - the form is submitted and it gets the value of the checkbox (checked
or unchecked) from $_POST.
2 - a link on the page that passes values in the URL. You would have to
compose the value at the time of click. php gets it via $_GET.
3 - an AJAX call from javascript. It gets the values via $_GET from the
URL that the javascript sends.
In all cases php has NO connection to the user's PC because it ALL
happens on the server.
Why would you want to set anything (other than cookie) on the user's PC?
If someone else comes along is that person going to be using the same
PC? Normally you set things on the server in either a file or a
database table.
