Javascript (client-side): Database query and Data handling
<p>I have built a web application that accepts a Member_ID # from the client (javascript). The Member_ID is stored as a var in my javascript… now I need to make queries with it…first query to get member information (name) and then join tables to gather information for health plans that the member is elligible under … and so on. </p>

<p>As far as I can remember the concept is… send a async request to the server and wait for a response, once the response is received, store it and then parse it to extract useful information. </p>

<p>The end goal is to use the 'useful' information to plot graphs using HTML5 Canvas. </p>

<p>I need some direction with how to make the query? because when I read this forum, it is recommended that client-side query is 'bad' for a plethora of reasons. </p>

<p>Since most of my stuff is happening in the client side... few things in C# asp.net...how do I proceed?</p>

<p>It is also important to note that the web application should be accessible via the internet. outside the local network. </p>

<p><strong>Does it make sense to Call a Web Service from the Client Side Using the AJAX Extension Toolkit??</strong></p>
