| | Brad Neuberg: Coding In Paradise: dojo.storage API |
 | | For example, if the user has Flash and we are on a browser, we use the FlashStorageProvider; if we don't have Flash and we are on IE, we use the IEStorageProvider which uses proprietary features of IE to get up to 60K of permanent storage. |
 | | If we are being run as a Firefox extension, then we use the XPCOMStorageProvider, etc. All of these providers expose a single, consistent API that basicly makes storage look like a hashtable, with get and put methods. |
 | | This means programmers can have permanent storage for their apps, independent of the platform's underlying capabilities. |
