Feature Request: Local Storage-based Progress Saving on HTML Tracker about mm-rando

[ZoeyZolotova]

I actually did use local storage for this when i first implemented the html tracker, but it doesn't work properly in some browsers. localStorage is null for local files in some browsers. If you can reproduce localStorage being null, and find a workaround for it, let me know.

The code that I posted does seem to work in Firefox, Chrome, and Edge. Are there other browsers that you know do not work?

Hmm it was 3 years ago so I don't really remember exactly which browser.
If it helps, this was the commit where I changed it: a532ca5#diff-0bf7c3aa7d7cbd81740b713adb0735e668a8538c5f92ab611ed0341680f8b578

For what it's worth, it's possible that 3 years ago maybe some older versions of Edge didn't support it properly? I would be surprised if that was the case, but it might be.

It'd be worth working in I think and seeing if people complain about it being broken. If we get more info, it'd be possible to debug any issues.

Worst case, it would be trivial to move to cookies or something a bit more ancient (but wider supported with truly old browsers).
