persisting across pages

[Gibble]

Personally, I find the .data() function in jQuery very useful. I can keep my html clean, and just attach data to the elements.

What I'm finding myself needing though, is a way to persist some data client side across pages.

Unfortunately, it wasn't as simple as $(window).data('key', 'value')

Aside from cookies and appending to the url, is there a way to accomplish this client side?

I couldn't find a plugin while searching yesterday that would accomplish this, and was hoping someone here had an idea.

Thanks

Since HTTP is a stateless protocol, each different page load has no inherent connection to the prior page loads.

The only methods of persisting data from one page to another are the ones you've already pointed out. :)
