Title
Body
SessionStorage and LocalStorage allows to save key/value pairs in a web browser. The value must be a string, and save js objects is not trivial. var user = {'name':'John'}; sessionStorage.setItem('user', user); var obj = sessionStorage.user; // obj='[object Object]' Not an object Nowadays, you can avoid this limitation by serializing objects to JSON, and then deserializing them to recover the objects. But the Storage API always pass through the setItem and getItem methods. sessionStorage.setItem('user', JSON.stringify(user)); var obj = JSON.parse(sessionStorage.getItem('user')); // An object :D Can I avoid this limitation? I just want to execute something like this: sessionStorage.user.name; // 'John' sessionStorage.user.name = 'Mary'; sessionStorage.user.name // 'Mary' I have tried the defineGetter and defineSetter methods to intercept the calls but its a tedious job, because I have to define all properties and my target is not to know the future properties.
