Disable Element by PHP if-statement

Hey, as the summary already states, I want to disable an HTML-Element with PHP if an action occurs.

For example I have a simple input button, and if the input button has been clicked 5 times, it is being disabled.

If anyone has an idea, please help.

Is the input button going to refresh the page?

If so, we can count the clicks with PHP and then disable the button by adding the "disabled" attribute with PHP before spitting the HTML out. If not, we need to count with JavaScript and PHP has nothing to do with this, and we can disable the button with JavaScript.
