Note: This program will only work with Internet Explorer.
In this article I will explain how to connect to a SQL database with JavaScript and how to show data from a database as a TextBox value.
First I created a database EmpDetail. Then I created a table in this database.
Query Code
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[emp](
[id] [int] NULL,
[name] [varchar](50) NULL,
[salary] [int] NULL
) ON [PRIMARY]
Now insert some data in the emp table.

document.body.appendChild(span);

rs.MoveNext();
}
rs.close();
connection.close();

else

alert("Please Enter Employee Id In TextBox");
