making outgoing TCP connections (like which are needed for any networked database driver) is not implemented in WebPerl (I think).
Only partially: Emscripten supports WebSockets, and it exposes these via the C sockets API (see also), so actually Perl's sockets API is able to access it. On the server side, one would need a WebSockets proxy (e.g. websockify), assuming the server doesn't support sockets natively. This is as far as I got playing around with it on the WebPerl client side. However, the big problem is that these sockets are required to be non-blocking, and so the database driver would need to be implemented as such, which is a big ask.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
