2007-02-13 As soon as I installed the FF extension, I received a Worm report from NAV. DeepThroat Trojan worm virus was detected, attempting access to port 6670. jcwinnie
I assure you my software is not Deep Throat. Deep Throat if it were installed can run on port 6670. Thus the warning. You can safely ignore the message. - DK
Rico's livegrid with sqlite: the Pow's way !
--Emchem 05:02, 12 April 2007 (PDT)
Hello, I've ported the Rico's livegrid demo-tutorial to sjs.
It provides a working example of a grid widget acting as a front end to a sqlite database. It does so using paging technique (i.e it sends ajax live calls to the database server when you're scrolling the grid).
Download the pow livegrid demo here: [1]
Installation:
- extract the zip file in htdocs directory
- then go to the url: [2]
WARNING !!! : For this demo to run, you must first apply the xml serving bug solution available here .

Paradise?
Hi guys,
This is such awesome potential I see in this "extension" (I hesitate to even call it a mere extension)... The ability to use XPCOM is awesome...
Now, I see someone has put up something for SQLite, which is great, but I personally think it would be even more cool to be able to work natively with XML, without any kind of kludge solution to force hierarchical XML into tabular form. The more choices there are for databases, the more I see POW making possible writing code once and having it work everywhere--and using a language (Javascript) which is a lot easier than the language which tried to do this first (Java).
Berkeley DB XML is an open-source native XML database which has a C API and could thus conceivably have an XPCOM written for it, and of course this means Javascript could access it (using POW on the server-side as well as client-side). I barely know any C /XPIDL, so I was wondering if anyone else might be inspired to try to make the component. Besides eliminating the overhead of a separate database server, BDBXML offers not only indexing unique for XML, but also XQuery, a (W3C) XML query language which is an extremely powerful and yet intuitive language (see w3schools.com for the tutorial) that opens up all kinds of possibilities and makes querying actually fun. Might there be anyone interested to help out???
thanks, Brett
Is POW a multithreaded Server? How many connections can POW handle?
No, since Javascript is not multithreaded, POW is not multithreaded. The number of simultaneous connections is determined by the OS. You should be able to handle 5 simultaneous connections easily.
