WebStorage

public class WebStorage
extends Object

java.lang.Object
   ↳ android.webkit.WebStorage

This class is used to manage the JavaScript storage APIs provided by the WebView. It manages the Web SQL Database API and the HTML5 Web Storage API. The Web SQL Database API provides storage which is private to a given origin. Use of the Web SQL Database can be attributed to an origin. It is also possible to set per-origin quotas.
