Hi All, I've got a bit of a problem, I'm about to start a 4-6 month project which will need offline support. AppCache is awesome and accepted as the standard but the big browsers are still undecided about the database implementation with Opera, Safari and Chrome opting for WebSQL (SQLite) and Mozilla and supposedly IE backing IndexDB. ...
I want to make a function that add an item to my localStorage object. E.g.: alert(localStorage.getItem('names').addItem('Bill').getItem('names')); The first method is getItem which gets the item for localStorage objects... but addItem would be a custom function. This chain of functions would finally alert Bill. So, how would I make t...
Possible Duplicate: Chaining a function in JavaScript? I asked a similar question, but a lot of people were confused and a lot of comments that made no sense (like someone commented jQuery overload... and this has nothing to do with jQuery). So here's my question, how do I add to the HTML5 localStorage object and make a custo...
So I'm really digging using localStorage for web apps and it works great... if you need a key-value store. However, I also find that my storage needs include something that looks like database tables with primary key - foreign key relationships. I had hoped IndexedDB would shape up sooner, but I'm disheartened by the less-than-ideal so...
I want to reduce load times on my websites by moving all cookies into local storage since they seem to have the same functionality. Is there any pros/cons (especially performance-wise) in using local storage to replace cookie functionality except for the obvious compatibility issues? ...
Hello: I have recently seen articles on HTML5 and local Db creation and usage. I have also seen some examples of Javascript connection strings to existing Access Db backends. I am interested in finding a way to build a Db, pre-load it with records, and use a web app to connect and read the Db. For example, I have created many standal...
Hi All, Im currently working on registration of our application. Basically we have a simple concurrent licensing system so when the user logs in we store their computer name and logon name to uniquely identify them. This is done from a simple winforms app that allows us to retrieve this data. We now have a brother silverlight project th...
If session storage lasts until the browser is exited, and iPhone/iPad does not exit mobile Safari, then how is sessionStorage handled? It would logically seem to be equivalent to localStorage, but it seems like there would have been a workaround or exception for this. Does anyone know how this is handled? Thanks! ...
Title says it all. This question is similar, but doesn't highlight any possibilities to export the data. Thoughts? ...
Hi, I have quite a problem with finding out how to distribute the web based application. There is the description: I have a web based application I would like to distribute over Apple Store (the application itself is free - I would like to use Apple Store because everybody uses it and it is a natural distribution channel for iPhone). T...
I'm not sure why, as i've done this before and it worked fine, and i'm thinking it might be because of a browser issue/bug: localStorage.setItem('foo', 'bar') alert(localStorage.getItem('foo')); I'm in Firefox 3.6.6 and it alerts "bar" but if I do: //localStorage.setItem('foo', 'bar') alert(localStorage.getItem('foo')); I get NULL....

I have been looking on the web for some time now and HTML5 local storage seems to look like something useful to me and a solution to my problem that I am having with PHP sessions, the problem is that they are not consistent even if I set them to remember me the next time I come to my home page I am taken to the login page, this is not al...
When I have www.mydomain.com and mydomain.com, each of them gets a separate localStorage. I've read here http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc197062(VS.85).aspx that I can access www.mydomain.com's localStorage from mydomain.com root domain. But how do I do that? I've tried localstorage['www.mydomain.com'].getItem... but that does...
I just learned about jquery's .makeArray and I am trying to use JSON.stringify to store the array in localStorage but I am having unexpected results. This works: var links = {'one': 1, 'two': 2 }; var setstr = JSON.stringify(links); localStorage.setItem('strlinks', setstr); var getstr = localStorage.getItem('strlinks'); console.log(ge...

Trying to use the YUI 2 Storage Utility and followed the example which worked (on the same page); but when I create a second page (say page2.html) and try to access the key I get null back for the value.
