Is the database also on the client?

Is this running on the internet, where we need to worry about security
restrictions, or an intranet where you could use ActiveX?
Do you know if your users all use IE?

In the most general sense, client-side javascript cannot connect to a
server-side SQL database. There are all kinds of caveats to that, so
more info would be needed before I could say anything more.

SQL Server 2000 has an XML over HTTP interface that you may be able to
manipulate with JavaScript.

I've worked that way successfully with a Flash movie before now - so
it's worth looking into.
