title: Using database in phonegap applications or not?
body: <p>I'm new to PhoneGap, I'm making an application, it has like 500 words with definition of each word.</p>
  
  <p>I have web developing background, in web developing, we create a database, and work with it, no matter the website is visited or not, data is there.</p>
  
  <p>But in PhoneGap, it likes that we make a database every time that the application ran, and drop the table if it exist next time ( i dont know if i understood it right ).</p>
  
  <p>So, if it's like that, it doesnt make any sense for me to use database at all !!</p>
  
  <p>I want to know is there a way, that when user install the app on the phone, Data transfer automaticly, and it just be there when we need it ? ( not creating the table with the entries every time we need it ! )</p>
