jQuery html disappears on refresh
Question by KenavR
i am modifying a empty <div> with the .html() method of jQuery. When i refresh the page the added code disappears.
$('#div').html($('#div').html() + '<div>'+obj.name+' <a href="">(x)</a>');
Is it possible to change the behaviour or use other methods?
thanks
Edit:
to calify my problem
Maybe it is a design error. It is a form with some fields and a second form where the user can upload files, after a file is uploaded i add the filename and a delete link in a div. If the user submits the form the program connects the created object and the files. It is not really a page where anybody should need to refresh, but it can happen and then the files are saved in the database but the information is lost to connect it with the form object.

Of course, whenever you are reloading the page, all the elements will go back to the original state (as loaded from the server). However there are ways of solving this.
- Using cookies
- Using HTML local storage
You have to understand how the client side scripting works. The modification happens on the client’s system, not on the server, from where the script is going to load.
