I'm not convinced that IETester changes the underlying APIs correctly. Because of bad experience with "Multiple IE" simulators in the past I don't test on anything but the real install.
I hear you there. I just wish it were easier to have multiple versions of IE laying around without having to boot a VM for each. Heh.

This was one of the less obvious uses of sarcasm in recent memory.

#36Lawnchair ( http://brianleroux.github.com/lawnchair/ ) is similar to this, but you have to pick an adapter (see http://github.com/brianleroux/lawnchair for browser list).

#37Anyone know of size limitations on this storage? I am in the middle of writing a jQuery plugin and storing data in cookies which have the 4KB size limitation (which resulted in me having to "chunk" the data across several cookies). This looks like the perfect alternative!

In the past I have used PersistJS ( http://pablotron.org/?cid=1557 ) for this. Are there reasons to prefer one or the other of these libraries?
PersistJS falls back on flash and cookies, which is bad (flash slows down browser during page loading, cookies fatten your network requests). Store.js uses localStorage, globalStorage and IE behaviors which do not have those negative side effects.
