How do I change a single value inside a localStorage item?

Question

I have a set of items that get saved but I\'m trying to change a value after I retrieve it and before I pass it of to my php function. Is it possible to change just one item?

Answer 1

Try this

var args = window.localStorage.getItem("localusers");
args["type"] = 6;

//Update the localStorage with new value
localStorage.setItem("localusers", JSON.stringify(args));

Like other JavaScript objects, you can treat the localStorage object as an associative array. Instead of using the getItem() and setItem() methods, you can simply use square brackets.

var args = localStorage["localusers"];
args["type"] = 6;

//Update the localStorage with new value
localStorage["localusers"] = args;
