I was under the impression that it wasnt possible. I mean being that javascript is clientside. Wouldnt it be kinda pointless? as the client would have to have he database username and password.
If it is possible Id like to know how.

You can't. Javascript runs on the client side.

just a note: in case you need this for a strict IE usage and a defined client environment (like an intranet) you may use IE's JScript/ActiveX capabilities to achieve that ... search the forum ... there are multiple answers to that question already ...

kind regards

AJAX stands for Asynchronous JavaScript and XML (see it's wiki page)
AJAX does not connect to databases. You need some serverside script that will give back results to your AJAX fuction calls.
AJAX merely fools the user into believeing that data is being retrieved from the database without the page being submitted.

Hi, I have a C# Solution/Application that contain 4 projects. Each of these projects needs at some time to access the same database. I would like to know how to share a single connection between these projects as i assume this would be more efficient than having a separate connection string for each project.

Web Solution Goal: Have a global database connection Why: (There will be 30+ tables, represented by 30+ classes) I only want to reference the database connection once. I put the connection string in the web.config. I created a class with a static database connection and the class opens and closes the database.

Hi. I'm writing controls that have to query the database, and it bothers me that I might have several of these controls on a page that each create, open, and close their own connection with the same connection string, and the page class has a connection object too. I'm using the code-behind way of doing things, and I considered leaving the database connection open as a field in the page's class and somehow letting the controls use that...

These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
