Problem Read the contents of a  Sqlite  database client-side and present them in an HTML based GUI. So my first reaction was, even if there is a solution to this, it surely cant be very efficient reading an entire Sqlite database client-side? well those were the requirements and there were some genuine reasons to back up those requirements, so i had to stop whinging and direct my efforts towards an actual solution.

What has happened a few times is that, the client starts a new sub-project, hands it to us and says we need this application to do "X". Can you make it do that?
