I’m using Google Chrome to submit a form with jQuery.ajax (and using return false to stop the page from reloading), the issue is that I want the inputs to remember the previously submitted values (for autocompleting, so it’d be any of them, not just the previous one, as they can vary a lot, and so I don’t have to type all over again if it’ll be the same thing), however, I’ve noticed new data isn’t remembered unless it was submitted the normal way. Is there a way to make Chrome “remeber” (as in suggesting the if I start typing something that matches a previously submitted value) new submitted values for the inputs by submitting with ajax?
P.S. I’m writing all the code, so I can do any necessary change.
Use local session or local storage. That way, when you load the form, the first thing that you do is check if the browser’s storage has the form’s value; if it does, then populate the form with these values.
There is also the option of doing server-side session storage but local storage should be an easier path.
