Hi, You require server-side programming to access a database. Your clientside (SVG/ecmascript) code is unable to access a database. Take any example of Perl with the DBI and SVG modules and your solution will be similar.
Take a look at: http://www.roasp.com/ for some examples of using mysql and perl to dynamically generate svg. I think you will find it in http://www.roasp.com/tutorials/ , but I am not 100% sure where to look and I am on a train as I write this. Also, try typing "Perl DBI SVG" in google. You might get lucky there. Of course, what you do with Perl, you can do with any other *serverside* language. When SVG1.2 comes along, it *may* be possible to directly access a database. For now, though, you have to access the database through a webservice or a program or script on a webserver.
