All you have to do is write a servlet to do this. You are confusing databases with web pages. It doesn't matter where the database is...if it is available on the network and you have a valid user account on that database, then a servlet can connect to it.
If a servlet is running on machine A, and the database is on machine B, the servlet can connect to the database. So, in your doPost() method of your servlet, accept the parameters of your Form, make your connection to the database, get your results back, format your results, and then send them back to the requester. You will want to implement/extend HttpServlet when you write your servlet.
