Support of SQLite and/or other databases

Got an idea for enhancing SpiderBasic? New command(s) you'd like to see?

Or storing local files.

Support for local storage gets +100 from me :)

After acquiring some more knowledge about SpiderBasic I realized that it's a sandboxed client web application and doesn't run on the server-side like eg. ASP.NET. So local files are of no use and therefore I withdraw this feature request.

But browsers (some at least) support local SQlite instances (ie local to the web client instance itself). Others support Indexed Storage (key-value data stores effectively)

So your request is still valid ;)

Edit: Unless of course you meant server-side databases all along. In which case indeed, it's not possible with SB

I understand. But for my purposes I don't see any practical usage scenario anymore. I'm going to create a CGI webservice with PureBasic that will communicate with the SpiderBasic client. Now I only need to know how to make a CGI service (...).

I am also working on a Purebasic CGI app for database requests.
Basically I use Spiderbasic to make a HTTP_Request to a CGI Web App (using Abyss Web Server).
The CGI Web App returns a JSON response with the data from the database (SQLITE) to SpiderBasic.
So far is working pretty good and very fast!! :P
