How to connect to SQL Server database from JavaScript in the browser?

Question

Can anybody give me some sample source code showing how to connect to a SQL Server 2005 database from JavaScript locally? I am learning web programming on my desktop.

Answer 1

I dont think you can connect to SQL server from client side javascripts. You need to pick up some server side language to build web applications which can interact with your database and use javascript only to make your user interface better to interact with.

you can pick up any server side scripting language based on your language preference :

• PHP
• ASP.Net
• Ruby On Rails
