What solutions would you guys recommend for storing data on the client? Is there something better than cookies? I've heard about the flash data storage, but, in my opinion, using flash for something as basic as client-side data caching is like using a sledge hammer to kill a fly.
View 1 Repliesm working on a website that uses a lot of ajax. There is a function to store favorites using the Cookie pluginon the site that works like this:
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#fav").cookieFill();
$(akteurContainer).bind("ajaxComplete",function(){
I am working on a web app for the iPad and I am storing all my content in cookies. I am wondering how easy it is to transfer it to Local Storage.
View 1 Replies View RelatedDoes anyone have a reputable reference about internal string storage in
JavaScript? (for some particular implementation I mean).
Say having 1,048,576 characters long string from the geometric
progression:
function generateLargeString() {
var s = 'a'
for (var i=1; i<21; ++i) {
s = s.concat(s);
}
return s;
}
- the internal size should be 2 mebibytes and not 1 (?) if strings are
indeed stored as Unicode 16-bit. From the other hand it would be
tempting for an engine developer do not spend extra bytes on ASCII
chars...
So does anyone know of any documented engine optimizations on the
matter? Would be expected on some engine to have the string from above
twice smaller than say
function generateLargeString() {
// 1200 ETHIOPIC SYLLABLE HA
var s = String.fromCharCode(0x1200);
for (var i=1; i<21; ++i) {
s = s.concat(s);
}
return s;
}
I have some code that attempts to save a user's preference settings. It first tries to use "localStorage", and if that fails (only old versions of MSIE), then a cookie is used instead.For example, if I intentionally misspell "localStorage" by instead using "localStor" (simulating a browser that doesn't understand the object name), the code simply does not run.unfortunately, that doesn't work.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm attempting to track changes to values I've stored in the localStorage object. From everything thing I've read, this is done by adding a "storage" event listener to the window object but the test file I made doesn't seem to fire the event. I was under the impression that there was pretty good support for this (although I do realize the spec is still under revision).
Code:
if(localStorage) {
// Set Item
button1 = document.createElement("input");
[Code].....
I create two buttons on the page - the first to write a value to localStorage (which works) and the second to clear all values from localStorage (also works). The problem is the event just does not want to fire for me. Even if I set the event on the window's "onstorage" property rather than use addEventListener, no event fires. I've tried in the most recent Chrome, Firefox and Safari browsers.
i am working as a llinux admin, in my company we are using Apache-tomcat to host the web server.
[URL]
check this url and i need one clarification in this image it clearly display the size of the mail box i 3mb and you are used already 21% like that,
this same scenario only we are going to use in our application , we are developing a H.R based application in that if client bought space from us.
for example if the client bought 250 mb space from us means, we need to intimate like that image which i posted above, -- ur using space is 250 mb ur alredy used 200 mb like that.
for this how is it possible using java??? and for this any server side works are there or using front side application itself we can finish this task?
How to store some strings at the client side for firefox, chrome & IE?I use the Prototype JavaScript Framework on Windows Vista Home.
View 1 Replies View RelatedWhat Ive done is use local storage to set a value in my web app.
Then my next task was to write said value on my page (This took me hours but finally got it done).
My next task is using Setinterval(or what ever the correct way to solve my problem) to subtract a number (lets use "1" for this example) Every 5 seconds from the local storage value.So basically After I click the button. Value is set and displayed. After another button is click. Every 5 seconds the localstorage is subtraced by 1. I think the code im looking for is similar to this

This code works on firefox & chrome but does not work on IE - no alert window appears.
var key = "localorder";
localStorage.setItem(key, 'asc');
alert('localorder ' + localStorage.getItem(key));
This code does not work on firefox, chrome nor IE - no alert window appears.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've got an online system which I'm interested in making available
offline - i.e. letting the user download certain HTML forms, fill them
out offline, then the next time he logs into the site, sending all the
data he filled out to the system. However, I can't seem to come up
with a good way to do this. I thought of using cookies (that'd be
great, since the system could detect them automatically), but it seems
I can't set cookies for my server offline; it has to be from a page on
the server itself. And from what I can tell, JavaScript doesn't have
the capability to write files on a local system either. Does anyone
have any ideas about how to go about this using JavaScript?
If I want to run javascript of a website offline on my PC, what should I do? It seems that I should save all the website content and scripts in a MHT file with IE, then run the MHT file. e.g. for the [URL].. website, if I save all the website content and scripts in a Webpage complete HTML file, then the five images will stop rotating offline.
View 3 Replies View RelatedNeed some possible technical solutions to my current project. Im in the middle of creating an 'offline' photo gallery website (on CD). Quite simple, but the challenge is how I can build an offline ordering process which
1) Allows the person browsing the cd photo gallery to select various photos, 2) Generate some sort of page/file which can then be printed then faxed, or even emailed if possible.
Does anyone have any tips on the best way to do this?
I'm using this script to call the correct mp3 for a web page.I need this (or something like it) to work when the html pages are being viewed from a CD instead of online. It works fine in IE8 (after I allow it to run) but I need it to work in Firefox as well. Right now Firefox just tells me that it cannot find a suitable plugin.
View 2 Replies View Relatedi have this site everything works perfect offline(local) but when i put it on my server theres a few things that mess up. What isnt working.. I have a little readmore link beside a main quote on everypage and this uses ceebox to open it. Within this lightbox it shows an html page that i made with just a little write up, at the bottom is a little nav and onclick it should be opening the corresponding hidden div while closing the lightbox. this works offline perfect, i cant seem to figure out why it wont once uploaded. I have gone over all folder names, etc and im positive this isnt the problem. this is the main page html snippet with the read more link
Code:
<div id="header-fade">
<div class="header_paragraphs panel" id="header-1" style="z-index: 0;">
<div class="header_p_1"><p class="header-p">AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA</p></div>
<div class="header_p_2"><p class="header-p">AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA</p></div>
<div class="header_p_3"><p class="header-p">AAAAAAAAAAA</p></div>
<div class="header_p_4"><p class="header-p">AAAAAAAAA</p></div>
</div><!-- Header P's -->

again it all works offline but as soon as i uplaod it to my server the nav inside the lightbox doesnt seem to work.
Does anyone know of a javascript way to have an html page check to see if it is being used on or offline?
Basically, I have some html pages that I want to place on a CD and display in a browser offline, but I don't want them to display from a domain online. (Yes, I know that sounds nuts.)
I imagine the code would check on loading that the page was being displayed online - from a domain (that should be possible???) - and redirect to another page if so.
I have a introduction webpage, which I wanted to supplement with a background slideshow. I chose Supersized slideshow jQuery plugin [URL] , implemented the code in my website. Everything looked okay, when I run the website offline, but when I upload it on the server, there is no background. The website is [URL].

View 11 Replies View RelatedI work for masterclock. We sell network synced clocks and timing systems. One of our products is a "bell ringer." We currently control this ringer through a C++ program another one of our employees made. However, it only works on Windows systems, looks like crap, and is as confusing beyond all get-out. I have been given the task of rewriting this program in a pretty, easy, and universal format. i.e. a browser. Now to further explain the bell system program.
1. The program searches the local network for the bell system hardware.
2. User chooses appropriate hardware (if more than one bell system exists) to connect to and enters the password.
3. User edits tables stored in a local MS Access database via the bell system program UI.
4. User sends data to the bell system hardware it is connected to.
I've been racking my brain and the internet for about 6 hours trying to see what is possible. Because this all needs to be done locally I can't use any sort of server-side language like php or asp. It seems silly to make a client install a virtual server to connect to a file that is on their own computer. I'm assuming that I am pretty much limited me to javascript. I found this site but that only works with internet explorer which is almost as restricting as the program we have now.
I considered flash for a little while until I found out a swf can't connect to a database w/o using php or asp. We aren't limited to the MS Access database but it would be less work for me if we could stick with it. It may not even be possible but it seems like it should work. some way. We also considered an internal site on the bell ringer hardware itself, like routers nowadays. I think that would be an equally if not more difficult process though and I'm limited to about 500kb on its flash memory.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have this web-app which can also be used offline. However, some content is dynamic (it depends on the user input). What I do now to have it accessible offline, is to store this content into localStorage. However, this works great for text, but what about images!
I've seen examples on the web where the base64 representation of the image-data is used, which is text and can be stored. But how do you get the Base64 of raw image data client-side ?
What would be the preferred way (Assume we don't have a File API) ?
