What role does the web server play in enabling PHP modules?

The web server plays a crucial role in enabling PHP modules by loading and executing the necessary PHP files that contain the module code. To enable a PHP module, you need to ensure that the module is installed on the server and properly configured in the PHP configuration file (php.ini). Additionally, the web server must be able to recognize and execute the PHP code within the module files. 

// Example PHP code snippet to enable a PHP module
// Enable the module in php.ini file
// extension=module_name.so

// Check if the module is loaded
if (extension_loaded('module_name')) {
    echo 'Module is enabled and loaded successfully.';
} else {
    echo 'Module is not enabled or loaded.';
}
