Do you mind specifying which database ? You need a server side technology.. it's not possible with HTML alone.

It cannot be done in HTML, but possible in JavaScript, which is not recommended. JavaScript is totally open to the client side, which would make database communications utterly unsafe. You can use any of the server-side technologies, for example based on ASP.NET, Prolog, PHP or anything else.

Solution 1

HTML are markup languages, basically they are set of tags like <html>, <body>, which is used to present a website using css, and javascript as a whole. All these, happen in the clients system or the user you will be browsing the website.

Now, Connecting to a database, happens on whole another level. It happens on server, which is where the website is hosted.

So, in order to connect to the database and perform various data related actions, you have to use server-side scripts, like php, jsp, asp.net etc.

I've added a reference to the original answer: if you copy an answer from another site, then ALWAYS post a reference to the original answer!

Than you for this important note. I almost voted 5 for this answer... Instead of "fixing" the answer in this way, you should report Anoop Kr Sharma on his account for plagiarism, which is quite a serious offense and should not be tolerated. This member account already got 4 abuse report but is still alive...
