Could someone tell me , is it possible to use JS to connect to a mySQL database?

If so, how?
Also how do i go about retrieving data from the database using JS?
ps The only tools i want to use are: mySQL, JAVASCRIPT and HTML.

Eueuwww,

Even if it was possible, you would be a complete moron if you'd do so.

Javascript is clientside and your users will be able to read (and therefor manipulate/misuse) your database (connection)info
