[whatwg] Aborting an in-progress database transaction

It seems like you need a way to abort an in-progress transaction. An easy way to do this would be to add an abort() method to SQLTransaction. Thoughts? - a

[whatwg] database transactions should be serialized

2008-08-04 Thread Aaron Boodman
I think this has been covered in passing before, but I wanted to bring it up explicitly. Currently, the database API has an error code for the situation where you open a transaction for read, then try to write but the database is locked. I think that the spec should at least suggest, but perhaps
