I've tried some variations on that theme, but no joy.
Yeah, trashcan of snakes came down today. We're looking at an iPhone/Pad app that uses and stores SQLite inline and then passes updates via WiFi to and from a website, where the program will have a full DOM interface, preferably PHP.
Xcode for this project is fairly straight forward, but I don't know if there is a way to stick an on-the-fly file comparison/updater kinda tool in between SQLite and MySQL.
I'm way outta my depth.
