How to save data from a form with HTML5 Local Storage?
LocalStorage has a setItem method. You can use it like this:
var inputEmail= document.getElementById("email");
localStorage.setItem("email", inputEmail.value);
When you want to get the value, you can do the following:
var storedValue = localStorage.getItem("email");
It is also possible to store the values on button click, like so:
<button onclick="store()" type="button">StoreEmail</button>
<script type="text/javascript">
function store(){
var inputEmail= document.getElementById("email");
localStorage.setItem("email", inputEmail.value);
}
</script>
Here's a quick function that will store the value of an <input>
, <textarea>
etc in local storage, and restore it on page load.
function persistInput(input)
{
var key = "input-" + input.id;
var storedValue = localStorage.getItem(key);
if (storedValue)
input.value = storedValue;
input.addEventListener('input', function ()
{
localStorage.setItem(key, input.value);
});
}
Your input element must have an id
specified that is unique amongst all usages of this function. It is this id
that identifies the value in local storage.
var inputElement = document.getElementById("name");
persistInput(inputElement);
Note that this method adds an event handler that is never removed. In most cases that won't be a problem, but you should consider whether it would be in your scenario.
Here,Simple solution using JQUERY is like this..
var username = $('#username').val();
var password = $('#password').val();
localStorage.setItem("username", username);
localStorage.setItem("password", password);
