IE6,7 Storage Support #28

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

Attached is a patch that will allow the gwt-mobile-webkit storage library to 
work with IE6 and 7. Those browsers do not have localStorage or sessionStorage 
capabilities but they do have an early implementation of localStorage using the 
userData behavior. This patch allows developers to continue to the storage 
engine without reverting to cookies or developing an independent solution to 
deal with these ancient browsers.

This is an extremely cool patch!

I'll apply the patch this weekend so it will end up in SVN.

Thanks man!

Working on the patch.

I'd like to have a workaround for event handling, just like in StorageImplIE8.
Is the JSON code necessary?

Yes the JSON is necessary to store and retrieve the key index. Without that 
index we lose the count and key methods. I don't have much experience with 
storage event handling so I was hoping that you might see a solution for it. 
Let me know if you need me to do anything.
