I agree.

Web pages have username and password with basic, digest or ldap
authorization. So if I createuser with same user and password, and if
there is md5 or something to encode password, I wonder javascript
connects to postgres securely.

As John said, I meant client side Javascript.

[GENERAL] javascript and postgres

2009-02-23 Thread
Hello all.

My javascript connects with postgres using php.
php responds with XML for my select request.
I wonder is there any way to access to postgres directly?
I mean like this.

   new PGSQL.Request  (
'postgres.server.com'
,{
,port: 5432
,sql : 'select * from bra'
,asynchronous : true
,parameters : ''
,onComplete : fetch_function
,onLoaded : function(){
$( 'status' ).innerHTML="Loading...";
}
,onFailure : function(){
$( 'status' ).innerHTML= "error";
}
}
);

regards
