Hello there,
I write this email to let you know about our surprise when we saw that
the Web SQL Database is no longer part of the html5 specification.
Having experienced the Google Gears plugin, which implement the WebSQL
Database, I can tell you that having SQL both on the client and the
server side, even if the SQL is not exactly the same, makes it very
practical to deal with synchronisation problems between client DB and
Server DB (for example you execute an update statement on the client
side, and then you report almost "as is" the statement on the server
side).
Dealing with "Indexed DB" will make this kind of stuff very hard...
Is this part of the spec really going to disapear?
Sylvain - I don't understand your question but please note the Web
Applications WG agreed in November 2010 to stop work on Web SQL
Database. Please see [1] for the related e-mail thread.
