My version of an SQLite Browser

Get the Flash Player to see this player. var s0 = new SWFObject("http://labs.astrobunny.net/wp-content/plugins/flash-video-player/mediaplayer.swf","n0","500","375","7"); s0.addParam("allowfullscreen","true"); s0.addParam("allowscriptaccess","always"); s0.addParam("wmode","opaque"); s0.addVariable("javascriptid","n0"); s0.addVariable("height","375"); s0.addVariable("width","500"); s0.addVariable("searchbar","false"); s0.addVariable("screencolor","0x000000"); s0.addVariable("overstretch","true"); s0.addVariable("showeq","false"); s0.addVariable("showicons","true"); s0.addVariable("shownavigation","true"); s0.addVariable("showstop","false"); s0.addVariable("showdigits","true"); s0.addVariable("showdownload","false"); s0.addVariable("usefullscreen","true"); s0.addVariable("autoscroll","false"); s0.addVariable("displayheight","355"); s0.addVariable("thumbsinplaylist","true"); s0.addVariable("autostart","false"); s0.addVariable("bufferlength","3"); s0.addVariable("repeat","false"); s0.addVariable("rotatetime","5"); s0.addVariable("shuffle","false"); s0.addVariable("smoothing","true"); s0.addVariable("volume","80"); s0.addVariable("enablejs","true"); s0.addVariable("linkfromdisplay","false"); s0.addVariable("linktarget","_self"); s0.addVariable("searchlink","http://search.longtail.tv/?q="); s0.addVariable("file","http://labs.astrobunny.net//wp-content/uploads/2009/03/sqlyte.flv"); s0.write("video0"); Having used an SQLiteBrowser available for free on Sourceforge, I felt that it didn’t handle big datasets as well as I would have liked, and wasn’t responsive enough when I wanted to browse through large tables. So I decided that I should make own [ READ MORE ]
