Good morning, Hopefully not. I don't think javascript has a database interface, but even if it did, I wouldn't advise to have the database exposed to the internet (timeline is a javascript application that works on the user's browser - to get data it must get it from somewhere available directly to the user).
The way I do it is by providing a webpage which results from a query to
the database. Depending on the cases, the webpage is public or protected
with password+SSL, depending on the cases. The format is either in XML
or JSON format. Then timeline uses that data.
I hope this was of some help,
