OM DB Documentataion

OM DB is a powerful database abstraction tool that developers can use to quickly create and deploy web-based applications that rely on databased information, from content to access control to layout and presentation information. At its core, OM DB allows developers to call recordsets and individual records out of the database with a few basic commands, easily maniputlate data for display on the web, and add and update database records, all without ever typing a single line of SQL. The structure of the library is such that all the core elements need a minimum of manipulation (with the sole exception of configuration of database server/connection information). Developers copy template files which extend those core elements with the specifics needed for their project (almost always information specific to each primary table in the database). More advanced users can also then add and configure properties and methods as needed or desired.

About the Name
OM is an acronym for "Object Model". It is also the "sacred syllable" in Sanscrit, the ancient language of India. It connotes power and tranquility and is used as a mantra to guide meditation in Hindu and Buddhist practice. OM DB is intended to provide application developers with a simple yet powerful toolset for creating database driven applications for deployment on the web.
