I’m playing around with HTML5. For that purpose I created some small Javascript widget using localStorage amongst other things. Up until yesterday Firefox played nice.

Then 6.0.2 came around and suddenly the localStorage object is null.

Going to http://html5test.com shows that Local Storage is not supported.

enter image description here

Using Chrome to view the exact same code (found at http://scriptonomicon.dk/CCDashboard/index.html) works fine. Using Firefox 6.0.2 on Windows (7) works just fine.

Has anyone else experienced that localstorage is broken on Firefox 6.0.2 on Mac?

    You should check the storage preferences, type about:config into the location bar. The relevant preferences are:

    • dom.storage.enabled – should obviously be true
    • dom.storage.default_quota – default value is 5120
    • 0
