PHP and Javascript

[fib_81]

Is it possible to query the database in a javascript function?

Thanks,
Tom

If you mean, connect to MySQL directly from JavaScript -- no, that's not possible.
JavaScript is a client side scripting language.
As such, even if you could, you would not want to do server stuff, as everything would be clearly visible to everyone.

You can, on a slightly unrelated plane, trigger the actual querying of the db from JavaScript. It would, however, have to be done by a PHP script in the end.
