to sql or not to sql?

[GregJohnson]

Is there a way to connect a internal database created with openDatabase to a select list etc. the way you can with a service?

[maxkatz]

Internal database - are referring to Web SQL Database?

[GregJohnson]

I guess so, still learning the terminology. IOW still part of HTML5 but not the localStorage keys.

You can use PhoneGap API to access the database: http://docs.phonegap.com/en/1.4.1/pho...

Ya, but that just shows how to access the DB, what I mean is there a way to connect that to say a select list the same way I would connect the results of a REST call. Or do I need to use some custom JS to populate the select list?

[maxkatz]

Not yet, it's something we are planning to do. You can definitely do it with JavaScript today.
