Is there a client-based internet technology that allows me to connect to a remote MYSQL dataabase without using any server side scripting ?
I know that JavaScript does not allow me, but provided that the user knows the database’s password, can it be done on the client side?
Do you just need a MySQL administration client? Something like MySQL Workbench should do the trick, no? If the database is open and available then any MySQL client application should be able to connect to it, including the command-line tools that come with MySQL.
Keep in mind that, in general, it’s usually not recommended to expose your database directly to the internet. You’ll want to really keep an eye on security if you do this.
