You could possibly use java to connect to mysql (jdbc, odbc) and then =
use
java to manipulate js objects on the page too. This would get tricky, =
but is
doable.

I would suggest you look into a server side language like PHP or Perl =
and
this way you have less problems across browsers and also js is =
incredibly
klunky, slow and prone to throw exceptions.
