Using variables after refreshing the page

Question

I was wondering if it is possible to keep some data even after refreshing the page. For example, I have values in my array and I don't want to lose them after refreshing the page.

Answer 1

Use Cookies in javascript or the HTML5 localStorage,sessionStorage variable .

To use HTML5 LocalStorage, simply use it like variable preceded by localStorage.

localStorage.variable=['wrg','wg','wg'];

To use HTML5 sessionStorage, simply use it like variable preceded by sessionStorage.

sessionStorage.variable=['wrg','wg','wg'];

Answer 2

I have used jStorage in the past for storing data, its uses HTML 5 local storage where available and falls back to other methods when needed.

$.jStorage.set(key, value, options)

value = $.jStorage.get(key)
value = $.jStorage.get(key, "default value")

Answer 3

There is a trick w/ window.name in some browsers which allows to keep data even after refresh. Window name can store a json of your array.

window.name = "[JSON]";

BTW, Dojo implemented wrapper around window.name Dojo WindowName

Answer 4

Set a cookie with your values and request the cookie.

Answer 5

One way is to create Cookie and store in it $.cookie("SomeKey", 1);
