Storing persistent data in the browser

For my web application, I need to store form inputs spanning several pages until I finally process them and create some results (mainly by formatting the input and presenting it in some layout). The options that I have are

  • Continue to send user inputs to the server, store them there in a database, do only the final manipulations and show the result.

  • Store the entries in browser memory when the user fills out forms and finally uses this data to manage and display the results.

I really want to use the second method, and perhaps the possible way is to use cookies, but I'm afraid that I can just push the upper limit on the storage of cookies. I am also open to understanding the merits of the first method or any third method.

thanks.

Clicking on the cookie storage limit may indicate that you are trying to store too much on the client side. It might be wise to store it on a server, something like a session. Then the session key can be saved in a cookie.

I would suggest storing data in a session variable until you go to the last step, and not into a cookie. I think this would be safer for your data, as the user does not have direct access to the data, so you can check how you are going.
