Web Storage and HTML5
Filed in General on Jul.21, 2010
Web Storage and DOM Storage (Document Object Model) are web application software methods and protocols that are used to store data in a web browser. Web storage supports persistent data storage, similar to cookies, as well as window-local storage.
Web storage is being standardized by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). It was originally part of the HTML 5 specification, but is now in a separate specification[1]. It is supported by Internet Explorer 8, Mozilla-based browsers (e.g., Firefox 2+, officially from 3.5)[2], Safari 4, Google Chrome 4 (sessionStorage is from 5), and Opera 10.50.
