Im really confused when thinking about my requirement to store data locally for offline viewing.Now i have two options,DOM storage and HTML5 Local storage.

As im a complete newbiew in this particular topic,i need some help of SO Experts and Gurus.

Whats the Advantage and Dis-advantage of these two.?can any one compare these one.,so that i can understand deeply or give some reference links?

回答1:

DOM Storage or Web Storage is the collective name given to the following types of client storage options available in HTML5. It includes:

localStorage

sessionStorage

Local storage is persistent meaning the stored data will still be there when you close and re-open the browser window.

Session storage is temporary and is available as long as the page session lasts.

There is really no comparison between the two since technically they both are the same.
