Any database from localhost

Javascript is client side scripting - meaning that all scripts are run on your browser and not on the server

you can use XMLHttpRequest to to get data:

var xmlhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
xmlhttp.open("GET", "http://somesite.con", false);
xmlhttp.setRequestHeader("Content-type","application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
xmlhttp.send(null);
var respon = xmlhttp.responseText;
alert(respon); 

but you will still need php/mysql to handle your database query or some other scripting language
