The Electric Plum website says the emulators support Web SQL and the iPhone and iPad configurations have an "HTML 5 Databases" option for Web SQL and IndexedDB APIs. When trying to use openDatabase the error SECURITY_ERR: DOM Exception 18 is thrown. For example calling

var Mydb = openDatabase('mydb', '1.0', 'my first database', 2 * 1024 * 1024);

shows Uncaught Error: SECURITY_ERR: DOM Exception 18 in the developer tools console.

What must be changed to make this work?

Thank you.

   Hi we have a bug in settings. It is doing the opposite of the "HTML5 Databases" setting :(

   For now, you should be able to work around that by un-checking that setting.

   Sorry about that, we'll be sure to fix it in the next update.

   Thank you. Turning the setting off worked for now.
