Get HTML5 localStorage keys

Question

I m just wondering how to get all key values in localStorage     I have tried to retrieve the values with a simple JavaScript loop  for  var i 1  i  lt   localStorage length  i          alert localStorage getItem i       But it works only if the keys are progressive numbers  starting at 1     How do I get all the keys  in order to display all available data

For those mentioning using Object keys localStorage     don t because it won t work in Firefox  ironically because Firefox is faithful to the spec   Consider this   localStorage setItem  key    value1   localStorage setItem  key2    value2   localStorage setItem  getItem    value3   localStorage setItem  setItem    value4     Because key  getItem and setItem are prototypal methods Object keys localStorage  will only return   key2     You are best to do something like this   let t       for  let i   0  i  lt  localStorage length  i        t push localStorage key i

Since the question mentioned finding the keys  I figured I d mention that to show every key and value pair  you could do it like this  based on Kevin s answer    for   var i   0  len   localStorage length  i  lt  len    i       console log  localStorage key  i            localStorage getItem  localStorage key  i            This will log the data in the format  key  value    Kevin  feel free to just take this info into the your answer if you want

I agree with Kevin he has the best answer but sometimes when you have different keys in your local storage with the same values for example you want your public users to see how many times they have added their items into their baskets you need to show them the number of times as well then you ca use this   var set   localStorage setItem  key    value    var element   document getElementById  tagId     for   var i   0  len   localStorage length  i  lt  len    i       element innerHTML    localStorage getItem localStorage key i     localStorage key i  length

for  var key in localStorage      console log key      EDIT  this answer is getting a lot of upvotes  so I guess it s a common question  I feel like I owe it to anyone who might stumble on my answer and think that it s  right  just because it was accepted to make an update  Truth is  the example above isn t really the right way to do this  The best and safest way is to do it like this   for   var i   0  len   localStorage length  i  lt  len    i       console log  localStorage getItem  localStorage key  i
