You can do that easily, but if you want to store an array you will need to serialize or encode it first because localStorage doesn't deal with arrays. e.g.:




var yourObject = $('#your-form').serializeObject();



To save you do either:



localStorage['variablename'] = JSON.stringify(yourObject) or localStorage.setItem('testObject', JSON.stringify(yourObject));



and to retrieve: JSON.parse(localStorage['yourObject']); or JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('yourObject')); and then the field values are available as yourObject.fieldName;



EDIT: In the example above I used serializeObject which is a jQuery plugin. The code used is below. (You can use serializeArray if you prefer but you will have to do more work to make your data usable once retrieved):




jQuery.fn.serializeObject = function () {
var formData = {};
var formArray = this.serializeArray();

for(var i = 0, n = formArray.length; i < n; ++i)
formData[formArray[i].name] = formArray[i].value;

return formData;
};
