On one of my scripts I have this code:

var webSocket = window.WebSocket || window.MozWebSocket;
window.ws = new webSocket('ws://64.121.210.140:2585/consoleappsample', 'my-protocol');

Which works fine. However, when the user changes pages, I have to re-establish the connection. I believe this is causing problems in my code because if the client sends data to the server and then changes pages, the data may not be received and race conditions are occurring.

I tried to put the window.ws in global scope but it didn't seem to fix the problem. Is there any way for the WebSockets connection to persist between pages so the connection does not need to be constantly reestablished?
