What are the advantages and disadvantages of using JavaScript to handle image resizing in PHP?

When handling image resizing in PHP, using JavaScript can provide a more interactive and responsive user experience. JavaScript can handle client-side image resizing, reducing server load and speeding up the process. However, relying solely on JavaScript for image resizing may not be secure as it exposes the resizing logic to the client-side, potentially leading to vulnerabilities. 

// PHP code snippet for handling image resizing
function resizeImage($image, $newWidth, $newHeight) {
    $source = imagecreatefromjpeg($image);
    $resized = imagecreatetruecolor($newWidth, $newHeight);
    imagecopyresampled($resized, $source, 0, 0, 0, 0, $newWidth, $newHeight, imagesx($source), imagesy($source));
    imagejpeg($resized, 'resized_image.jpg');
}
