Phonegap Offline Database (Across all platforms)

Question

I have gone through the Phone Gap Storage. But this is not supported on windows phones. Now I want to create a app which will be truly compatible across all platforms. i.e. windows 8 ,windows 7, windows xp, iOS, Android.

Is there a plugin or alternative to sqlite on windows phone? I have found this Sql client for windows. What's a better solution ?

Answer 1

I have looked for a xplat database solution for a while as well but haven't found anything other that SQLite. Short of utilizing XML files, SQLite still appears to be the best choice for xplat mobile phone support.

Answer 2

Actually, HTML5's storage API is still in discussion, the possible solutions are either storage objects (local/session storage) or Indexed DB. Its is not yet standardized. So, no possible solution yet, but you can use a plugin compatible on major platforms you want to deploy on.

YOu can use IOS plugin, Windows 8 plugin,Android plugin by brodyspark. These are well documented and may solve your problem.
