Yes, that's talking about JS access to Mozilla nsXyz interfaces.

But HTML5 webstorage provides what you want, localStorage.setItem() /
getItem() , implemented in latest XULRunner and WebKit.
Mozilla's explanation: 
Apple's: 


I tried Apple's example HTML and it works fine in Firefox 3.5, but not
in Browse in OLPC 8.2.0.
If you want to work in Browse in OLPC 8.2.0 (Firefox 3.0 equivalent) I
think you'd have to use Mozilla's non-standard globalStorage object.
I think SoaS and F11 for XO include a later XULRunner 1.9.2 that has
Firefox 3.5 features, maybe someone running those could try
http://www.skierpage.com/olpc/offline_test.html ?

Here's a summary of storage options:

There's realStorage (http://code.google.com/p/realstorage/), but I
don't know if it's mature enough.

You could always use one of the various JS ORMs, that usually have
several backends, as varied as html5, gears, cookie, flash cookie,
activex, etc.

I agree and it should be bundled w/ the utilities in utils/

will do. The only ones I have seen so far seem to be for mozilla like
this one

https://developer.mozilla.org/En/Offline_resources_in_Firefox

it appears to be very specific to firefox


http://dev.w3.org/html5/webstorage/

It sounds like some browser storage solutions use SQL, which I want to
avoid. SQL is really overkill for our purposes. I would prefer a simple
key/pair storage that you could read and write to w/ js.

I like this guy's implementation but I have no idea where is has gone
since he wrote this blog entry

[Sugar-devel] HTML 5 article and validator

[Christoph Derndorfer]

Finally had a chance to read a quick intro article to HTML 5 (
http://www.smashingmagazine.com/2009/07/16/html5-and-the-future-of-the-web/)
which also linked to an (experimental) HTML 5 validator (
http://html5.validator.nu/).
I'm thinking especially the validator could come in quite handy for Karma
development work.

BTW, let me know if you stumble across other HTML 5 articles and tutorials,
I'm particularly interested in information and how-tos on how to use the
offline storage functionality.

Thanks,
Christoph
