I have a large array of vehicle make and model data that I want

  • 0

I have a large array of vehicle make and model data that I want to dynamically display on a web page. For example, when you select a vehicle make from a drop down menu the vehicle model dropdown is dynamically populated with an asynchronous call.

I would normally execute this with an AJAX call to a PHP script that would return the desired data from a server side database.

To remove the need for a PHP helper script, I would like to directly call a server side SQLite database.

Everything seems to indicate that server side SQLite databases are not meant to be queried with Google Web Toolkit or JQuery.

Is it possible to use a server side SQLite databases with Google Web Toolkit or JQuery?

Thanks as always!

    a couple of datapoints:

    • both GWT and jQuery ultimately execute as JavaScript inside the browser. they don’t have any access to the network stack beyond being able to initiate AJAX requests (HTTP).

    • SQLite isn’t a server, it’s a library embedded inside an executable. Most modern scripting languages (like PHP, Python, Ruby, etc) embed it in some library (either core or external).

    • both HTML5 and Google Gears use SQLite to provide client-side data storage to client-side JavaScript apps; but it’s all running inside the browser and therefore fully client-side.

    so…. there’s no ‘direct’ route between GTW/jQuery to server-side SQLite
