jQuery plugin wrapping web storage and implementing fallbacks
webStorage - a jQuery plugin
== Intro ==
This plugin provides a way to get at the two new webStorage objects while also implementing fallbacks for when they're missing.
== Usage ==
$.webStorage.session() - get the built-in sessionStorage object or fallback to cookies or something worse (more on that later).
$.webStorage.local() - get the built-in localStorage object or fallback to whatever's available. Currently, fallbacks for IE 6-7, Firefox 2 and anything with Gears (Chrome 2-3) are available.
The data returned by these two methods match the webStorage spec even when fallbacks are used. Data can be primative types or objects.
length - number of items in storage key(index) - key at a given index (keys can move around during store operations) getItem(key) - object stored with the given key setItem(key, data) - store an object with the given key removeItem(key) - get rid of a stored object clear() - get rid of everything
