localStorage does not persist between loads of the same local page (i.e., when URL is like file:///C:/any.html) even in the same tab of the same Firefox session. E.g., when the following page is reloaded:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html> <head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function handleOnload() {
var html = '<br>localStorage.getItem("key"): ' + localStorage.getItem('key');
localStorage.setItem('key','val');
html += '<br>localStorage.getItem("key"): ' + localStorage.getItem('key');
document.getElementById('id').innerHTML = html;
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="handleOnload();">
<p id="id">
</body>
</html>
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Copy the above example into a file on your machine and try it.
2.
3.
Actual Results:
localStorage.getItem("key"): null
localStorage.getItem("key"): val
(even after reload -- so the data has not persisted).
Expected Results:
When first loaded ...
localStorage.getItem("key"): null
localStorage.getItem("key"): val
The reloaded ...
localStorage.getItem("key"): val
localStorage.getItem("key"): val
