On a side-note, I think local storage will soon become as important to client-side code as AJAX, and (at least at this stage) it also seems to suffer from browser incompatibilities. "Never say never". ;) --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you ar

This is timely. I've been working with window.localStorage for the past couple months now and initially I wrote a nice and simple wrapper for it that also provides an in-memory cache where clients do not support window.localStorage. I rewrote it a couple times since then and thought I had somethin

I use "small" (40 lines of code) storage class, that uses cookies or localStorage. IMHO, userData and databases not so usefull: IE userData behavior relies on DOM. database works in webkit, which supports localStorage. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this messa
