    <p>In the options page of a chrome extension, localStorage is null and thus can not be used.<br> Here are the files of the unpacked extension producing error.</p> <h3>manifest.json</h3> <pre><code>{ "name": "someTest", "version": "1.0", "manifest_version": 2, "description": "Not important", "icons": { "16": "icon16.png", "48": "icon48.png" }, "options_page": "options.html" } </code></pre> <h3>options.html</h3> <pre><code>&lt;!doctype html&gt; &lt;html lang="en"&gt; &lt;head&gt; &lt;meta charset="UTF-8"&gt; &lt;title&gt;Just a test&lt;/title&gt; &lt;/head&gt; &lt;body&gt; &lt;script src="options.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt; &lt;/body&gt; &lt;/html&gt; </code></pre> <h3>options.js</h3> <pre><code>console.log(localStorage); </code></pre> <p>Accessing the options page, the console outputs <code>null</code>. When trying to change or access a property using <code>localStorage['property']</code>, it throws an error since localStorage is null.</p> <p>I tried something like <code>localStorage = {property: 'value'};</code> but it did not change anything, after that localStorage was still null.</p> <p>I'm using chrome 28.0.1500.95 on Windows 8.</p> <p><strong>Edit:</strong> The issue is still there. However, I -for the moment- use an alternative, if it can help someone. I now use chrome storage.</p> <p>Here is how it works.</p> <h3>manifest.json</h3> <pre><code>"permissions": ["storage"] </code></pre> <h3>options.js</h3> <pre><code>//You can also use an array of strings instead of 'property' to get multiple values. chrome.storage.local.get('property', function(data) { if(!data.propery) return; //Not set console.log(data.property); }); chrome.storage.local.set({property: 'value'}, function() { console.log('saved'); }); //It can be used the same way directly in content scripts. </code></pre>

    1. COEither way, use `localStorage.setItem("key", "value")` and `localStorage.getItem("key")` (and `localStorage.removeItem("key")`)

    2. COYeah I just tried do to it like the [official google exemple](http://developer.chrome.com/extensions/options.html). But `setItem` and all don't work neither since localStorage is `null`.

    3. COWhen you open the console on the options page (Ctrl+Shift+J), and type in `localStorage`, you also see `null` that way as well?

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
