Web app running on ipad using local db

[Nandan Jain]

Hi,
I want to develop an application for my client which would run on ipad. Since i dont have mac and i dont know ios programming, i can develop app which runs on safari. I need to fetch data from data base because client want to author data. If i keep data base on server then there are performance issues (slow loading of images). Os there a way to keep data base locally on ipad and read it in web app running on safari?

Thanks

Web apps don't "run in Safari", or any other browser, they run on the server.

Sorry. I mean my web app is hosted on server and runs on safari browser.

The database must be located on the net.
