    I am the only one to find this asynchronous request ridiculous ? More over, it seems that Safari implements only the asynchronous model right now... I wonder how we efficiently code like that...

    I would enjoy any link to serious programing with the async db driver.

    To get an object implementing DatabaseSync you have to call openDatabaseSync(...) instead of openDatabase(...). I don't know about the iPhone, or what the oDB object you have is, but according to spec you only get the openDatabaseSync method in a WebWorker and not in the normal web browser window. Certainly XMLHttpRequest has demonstrated that potentially-length synchronous operations in the UI thread are not a good idea.

    It's not possible to run asynchronous code synchronously, or vice versa. To do so you'd need language-level features like threads or co-routines that JavaScript doesn't have. You have to exit your functions and return control to the browser to allow it to perform the HTTP request or database query, and call you back on the handler function you gave it.

    So you will have to rewrite your code ‘inside-out’ to pass callback functions instead of expecting return values, every time you do something involving database IO.

    function tellMeWhenIsStarted(oDB, callback) {
        oDB.query(sql,params,function(transaction,result) {
            callback(result.rows.length>0);
        }
    });

    You have to block the next execution when you intend to retrieve the results synchronously, The price you have to pay is the UI getting blocked during the execution.

    var ret = null;
    var finished = false;
    
    cfunction isStarted(oDB) {
             oDB.query(sql,params,function(transaction,result) {
                    ret = result;
                    finished = true;
             });
    
        while(!finished){
        ;//block next execution, while result is being fetched
        }
        return ret;
    }
