Difference between websql and sqllite

[Divesh Salian]

After a long search still am not able to find a difference between websql and sqlite.

• are both html5 based ?
• websql has storage limit where as sqlite there is no storage limit ?

• Is external plugin required for sqllite in phonegap ? as documentation states that following code will create a sqlite database

  var db = window.openDatabase("test", "1.0", "Test DB", 1000000);

any suggestion is much appreciated

Both are SQLite based, not related to HTML5.

Web SQL has a 5 MB limit, but once it reaches 5 MB it will give an option to user to increase the limit to 25MB. But in general for a normal app(login based, tracking user data in plain text ) 5 MB should be more than enough.

Yes for SQLite you need an additional plugin.

window.openDatabase() will create a Web SQL Database.
