This interface represents an event that occurs to notify interested parties about changes to the contents of a DOM storage space; it is used for both session storage and local storage.

Introduced

Gecko 1.8

Obsolete

Gecko 2.0

Inherits from: nsIDOMEvent Last changed in Gecko 1.8 (Firefox 1.5 / Thunderbird 1.5 / SeaMonkey 1.0)

When a DOM storage event is received, the recipient can check its domain attribute to determine which domain's data store has changed. If the value of the domain attribute is "#session", then the session storage has changed.

Note: This interface describes the old, non-standard form of this event. You should use the nsIDOMStorageEvent interface instead.
