Hi,

to access you remote MySQL database from within a WRT widget you should have to put up a Servlet (or a proxy page based on any other server side technology) that retrieves the data you want, then formats it in a suitable format (e.g.: XML, JSON, CSV, ..) and finally sends it to your WRT Widget

Done that, you'll be able to access the Servlet by using XMLHttpRequest object, as also shown in many examples on Forum Nokia Wiki.

Hi Jappit!
Thanks you for your information! I also want to ask you. How can I send the binary array from servlet to widget? It can be pass from XML?

If possible, please give me samples or url for references.

Thanks you for everything,
Sweet Sweet
