Yes, that's talking about JS access to Mozilla nsXyz interfaces. However... > 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. But HTML5 webstorage provides what you want, localStorage.setItem() / getItem() , implemented in latest XULRunner and WebKit. Mozilla's explanation: <https://developer.mozilla.org/en/DOM/Storage> Apple's: <http://developer.apple.com/safari/library/documentation/iPhone/Conceptual/SafariJSDatabaseGuide/Name-ValueStorage/Name-ValueStorage.html> 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: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1194784/which-browsers-support-html5-offline-storage Hope this helps, -- =S Page _______________________________________________ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel
