WRONG SECTION
You can connect HTML pages to databases, provided you are using ASP,PHP,JSP,JAVA ....etc, for designing, with HTML. Using these languages you can connect to the databases such as MySql,MS access,MSSql etc.

Connecting to MySql database in PHP is something like this

<?php
$dbhost = 'localhost';
$dbuser = 'root';
$dbpass = 'password';

$conn = mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass) or die ('Error connecting to mysql');

$dbname = 'petstore';
mysql_select_db($dbname);
?>

thanks

but i dont know wat is asp, php, jsp

and i also dont know how to connect ms access database using these asp,php,jslp with the html

the above code will connect PHP page to MySql, and you can learn jsp,PHP. easily by studying some online books , programs.Just go through some PHP projects online, you will get an idea.

hy u can learn ASP (buk name ASP.net)as it is more or less similar to VB...
as u r learnin html so u can merge both .dunno worry ASP is easy!!

i suppose connectivity to db is not advanced HTML... its just core of eithr ASP,php,java.... html has nothing to do with connectivity !!!
