If you're going to mostly pass data for use with web applications then JSON is possibly a more appropriate format, since it can be used to construct JavaScript objects just by using the single command 'eval'. A good implementation would do any of the three, depending on what was passed in the URL or URI. > For those great C developers out there: What do you think of this > idea? The problem is not in coding it -- that's relatively easy. The problem is in who would use it. I think that would be mostly people who already use PHP to write a backend data server. The advantage of this is that it can be done using just the hugely popular and tested Apache: it already has SQLite built in. On the other hand, Apache is huge, complicated and hard to test. A minimal kit including just HTTP and SQLite would be smaller and simpler and therefore more in the spirit of SQLite.
