Access remote MySQL database from windows 8 app
Question
I need to access MySQL database which is located in remote server. I need to fetch data and display it in Windows 8 App (HTML/Javascript). Is there any API or JS framework available which can access remote database.
I don't want to store database in windows 8 app, I just need to retrieve it from remote.

Not sure why the previous post is getting downvoted, but here's a deeper explanation:
As per the design models put forward by Microsoft in its examples and the need for highly-responsive applications, The preferred method for getting data into Windows 8 apps is via web services. This allows you to do things like use the async/await keywords so that your application can stay responsive while getting data. There's very little reason to use a database over the web service.
You should check here for a data usage example with the HTML/Javascript app: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/hh974582.aspx

Well I recently did some tweaking with Windows store apps and Php and this is what I've come up with it's not much but it can give you a start up.
You can use MySQL with Php and then echo out the data. This is from where JavaScript / HTML windows store can fetch the data by using JQuery.
$.ajax({
type: "GET" //POST GET your choice
url: " " //paste the php script that retrieves the data from the database
success: function (output){
$('#myDiv').append(data);
}
});
Please do keep in mind this is just an unauthorized way of accessing data from MySQL through PHP.
The HTML can be for default.html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8" />
<title>test</title>
