A Custom Property Sets 'Database"

[Marielle Lange]

Hi Scott,

About SQLite, another demo stack on sqlite has just been added to the  
education gallery:

<http://revolution.lexicall.org/stacks_education.php>
(under SQLite, middle of the page).

Of interest to anybody who already knows a little about MySQL  
syntax.  It's not as elaborate as Chipp's one but it's free and open  
source.

It presents an interface very similar to the one found in phpMyAdmin  
(which let you  manage your mysql databases from your webserver) and  
let you enter sql queries. Some help file is provided as well.

Ideal for the ones who want to learn MySQL syntax but are not  
comfortable about doing it on a server.
