Not sure what the issue was...I think something to do with the Javascript DOM or something another! Will be watching this thread to see if you get it worked out!

One is saving a file to the device or sdcard. One is using preferences. And one is using localStorage via JavaScript. Comments There's multiple ways to store data on a device. One is SQL lite.

I'm trying to do this myself also. LA Comments Caslor, I think you have the right idea but just needs some tweaking. I'm trying to do this myself also. LA
