BiggerSQL is an advanced Cocoa based Postgresql Browser/Editor
for Mac OSX users.

BiggerSQL lives at http://homepage.mac.com/levanj/Cocoa

BiggerSQL is capable of displaying images, playing mp3s, displaying
movies and flash content. ie BiggerSQL is multimedia aware.

From this versions release notes:
Oct 15, 2004

Version 1.3.8 Additions

Web browser technology has been embedded in BiggerSQL. The browser can
be displayed
by choosing "Show Web Browser" from the File menu.

There are two new items in the contextual popup menu that will also
invoke the web
browser. "View Bytea Field as HTML" and "View Text Field as HTML".
Invoking
either of these menu items when the cursor is over the appropriate
field will bring
the browser forward and attempt to display the contents of the field in
the browser.

I have been using this feature to view html based email stored in one
of my postgresql
databases.

I have also used the embedded browser to interact with a database via
cgi's without
having to start a full blown browser.

There is also another new item in the contextual menu "Save Bytea
Field..." . Choosing
this item will allow the user to extract a bytea field into a user
named file.

One caveat: This version was built against Version 8.0.0 Beta 3 of the
Postgresql system.
I did not have to make any changes in the source to accommodate this
change. An early
tester has confirmed that the program still works against version 7
databases

Enjoy,

Jerry
