Dialect differences

FoxPro is a database server and HTML is a file format, so the gap is wider than a dialect difference - the rows below are where values and structure stop lining up.

No counterpart

  • HTML has no equivalent for Date and time - it has to be flattened or dropped.
  • HTML has no equivalent for JSON - it has to be flattened or dropped.
