Server side scripts start processing data generally when end user or client triggers some action. Server side looks for the request object sent by end user and processes it and presents the relevant data model.
For example a user wants to see his profile. He can click on the Show Profile button after Login. Once he click it a request object with two parameters Login Id and Profile is sent. The server side processes the request and separates the Login Id and Show Profile. It then ask the database or file to show profile associated with the login id.
There are auto-loading classes and triggers which activate on their own without user input also.

This reduces the number of requests and responses to/from the server.

A server-side scripting language is one that resides on the server. Whereas client-side scripting happens inside the users browser, after they've downloaded the code, server-side languages work before the file is sent from the server. Server-side languages tend to deal with more "heavy lifting" than client side. They retrieve records from databases, maintain state over the stateless HTTP connection, and do a lot of things that require more security than JavaScript alone can provide. Because they reside on the server, these programs never have their source code exposed to the user. JavaScript source code must be available to the client by definition. Some server-side languages are: C, PHP, Ruby, Python, JavaServer Pages, ColdFusion, ASP, and Perl.
You can't. You need a Server-side scripting language such as php.
