Classic database using localStorage

[djr33]

Why do you want to do this using localStorage? It won't actually save anywhere permanently. Wouldn't you want a real database if this is going to be useful? Or is this just a demo/test?

a real database would be great, how can i accomplish that?

First, you need a server with a serverside language like PHP, ASP, CGI, Perl or something else along those lines. It will also, of course, need to have a database available, like MySQL, Access, etc. The most common combination for the average website on cheap hosting is PHP and MySQL and it's widely supported and can definitely do what you need. Any other combination is fine too.
You can get such a hosting account for around $5/mo (from many companies) and that's about all you should need until your website grows significantly. There are even some free hosts out there, but it's probably worth $5/mo because the free hosts always have major limitations, but depending on what you're doing, you might be able to work around that.

After that, you'll need to learn both the serverside language (eg, PHP) and the database language (eg, MySQL). It's not as daunting a task as it might seem and there's plenty of information out there. We can help here too.

That's the next step. Does that help?

next step would be the original post minus the html storage i guess...

Right. But you won't find that prebuilt for you. You'll need to make it or hire someone to make it. None of that is particularly difficult (although it might take longer depending on the scale of the project). But you will need to design a custom solution for this.
