Question

I want to cache the following JSON object in the page so that I can retrieve it on another page.

var test = {
        "lists":["list1","list2","list3","list4","list5"],
        "maps": {  
            "key4":"value4","key3":"value3","key5":"value5","key2":"value2","key1":"value1"
        },
        "number1":123456789,
        "numberarray1":[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9],
        "string1":"A",
        "stringarray1":["A1","B1"]
    }

How do I cache it and retrieve it again?

Is this possible? If not are there other ways that I can save my JSON object and then retrieve it on another page.

Thank you.
