What potential issues can arise when measuring script performance in different browsers, such as Internet Explorer and Firefox, in PHP?

Potential issues that can arise when measuring script performance in different browsers in PHP include differences in browser rendering engines, JavaScript execution speeds, and caching mechanisms. To address this, one approach is to use browser detection to tailor the script's behavior based on the specific browser being used. 

// Browser detection to measure script performance
$browser = $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'];

if (strpos($browser, 'Firefox') !== false) {
    // Code specific to Firefox browser
} elseif (strpos($browser, 'MSIE') !== false) {
    // Code specific to Internet Explorer browser
} else {
    // Code for other browsers
}
