I want to listen for changes that are happening in the localStorage API on the same page (Not in multiple tabs like the spec says).
I am currently using this code:
var storageHandler = function () {
alert('storage event 1');
};
window.addEventListener("storage", storageHandler, false);
localStorage.setItem('foo', 'bar');
Does anyone know a vanilla JavaScript way to listen to events on localStorage on one page (no jQuery)
Since JS is dynamical language just rewrite original functions.
var originalSetItem = localStorage.setItem;
localStorage.setItem = function(){
document.createEvent('Event').initEvent('itemInserted', true, true);
originalSetItem.apply(this, arguments);
}
