How to save large amount of data within users browser?

Question

I have been writing a php script that saves a long string within cookie (more than 4000 chars long) and I want to save it within the browser cache. The problem is that almost all browsers have a limit. What should I do? I'm using jQuery for adding and reading data from cookie and php.

Answer 1

Rethink your App logic and save most of the data on server.

This will save you a lot of hassle in the long run.

Just my two cents.

Answer 2

You can use HTML5 based concept of IndexDb to save data at client end.
