Connecting to a database

[hosdank]

I was just wonder if anyone could give me help with how to connect to a MySQL database in JavaScript. Thanks

There's no way unless you used ajax. But it would still need a serverside. Check out ajax:

Why would you want to connect to a database with JavaScript? Even if you did get it to work with Ajax, think about how insecure it is? Server-side languages execute behind the HTML output, however JavaScript does not - hence the term client-side.

So any database information would be in your HTML source.
