Use javascript and maybe you may not want to connect to mysql... Try .csv formats and excel... It's good if you are not storing sensitive information.

Html and Javascript are the Front end side languages, it not advisable to use those languages features to connect to database. Later it would be very tough to maintain it and enhance it.

ALWAYS THINK IN FUTURE PERSPECTIVE, else your code becomes obsolete

instead you can use any scripting language like php to connect to database. Since you wanted to create a website, obviously PHP and mysal will be always available to you at NO COST.

Yes it is. You will however need a backend database with a HTTP interface. One of which is MongoDB which has a REST interface.

No, you can't, and if you could then you would be insane to do so as it would allow everybody to make arbitrary SQL queries.
