I built a database with the attached tables using MySQL, Now I need to be able to use Javascript to connect to the server to insert and pull data. For example, when I'm creating a user account, after the information has been inputted in the HTML and collected using Javascript, I need to able to store the user information, and later when I need to display orders, I need to be able to pull all orders with a specific OrderStatus to show in a table.
I need to first be able to show how to do this locally, which should be the easier task, and then over online if possible.
I built the data with my MySQL workbench 6.3, but I don't know how to connect it to the web pages that I already have, I'm also wondering if SQL Server will work better than MySQL? In addition, What is the best server that I could in my case which will allow me to use the server from any laptop or workstation instead of having it locally?
Please I need some feedback on this so I could be directed in the right way and save some time to work on finishing this web page.
Below is the code for creating an account, and I need to test this code on a database and make sure that it is connecting right.
What I have tried:

<head>
<title>Create an user account</title>
