Where can I find a definitive reference on HTML 5 database SQL syntax support?

Does anyone know of a good online resource which gives a clear reference on the SQL syntax supported by HTML 5 client-side databases? I've looked about and cannot seem to locate one.

Thanks

the short answer: http://sqlite.org/lang.html

the long answer: the sql-syntax isn't in the spec, because it's entirely defined by sqlite, the db-engine used by both safari and chrome (the two browsers to support webdb, with opera probably following soon(ish) and ms and mozilla refusing to follow just because of the fact that such a spec would be too dependant of the evolution of an external component). so you'll probably want to look at the sqlite sql dialect?
