As I understand it, you're trying to do this from within a web browser, which means it just simply ain't gonna work, not no way, not nohow. Most if not all web browsers do not allow code within a page to access any resource (such as your database) which lies outside the browser; this is simply a security measure to prevent hostile web pages from gaining access to your computer.

If you want to create a web page that accesses a database, you must do so using a server-side execution environment such as php or node.js, which can access the database, generate an html page, and then present it to your browser for viewing.
