HTML5 is also called Web Storage, which was once part of the HTML5 specification, but was separated from it for uninteresting political reasons. Some browser vendors also refer to this as "Localstorage javascript" and "DOMStorage". The naming problem is compounded by the emergence of related and similar naming standards. In JavaScript, the HTML5 store can be accessed through the localStorage object of the global window object. Before, however, check if your browser supports it.
