Actually you can, with server side javascript, although I don't know if
it supports postgresql. It does support odbc.

I wouldn't recommend it, but we did have a full database implementation
strictly using server side javascript. It was a time reporting system
and it worked okay. The server side stuff seemed to be quite a load on
the server though. We are using to connect to an existing Oracle
database. Nothing else, html and server side javascript.
