Are there any common misconceptions about the use of PHP buttons in web development?

One common misconception about using PHP buttons in web development is that PHP alone can handle button clicks and perform actions without any additional client-side scripting like JavaScript. In reality, PHP is a server-side language and cannot directly interact with user actions like button clicks without the help of JavaScript. To solve this issue, you can use JavaScript to handle button clicks and send requests to the server-side PHP scripts for processing. 

<?php
if(isset($_POST['submit_button'])){
    // Perform actions when the button is clicked
    echo "Button clicked!";
}
?>
```

```html
<form method="post">
    <input type="submit" name="submit_button" value="Click me">
</form>
