Thanks.<br>I know 'Web Storage' is a separate specification now, :)<br><br>I just want to know the motivation behind it , so editors(e.g. Ian) ' design ideas can better be understood . They must have some reasons to make the decision.<br>

Many features are now in separate specifications / drafts, linked to in the introduction you reference. It doesn't mean they're dead, indeed web storage has been implemented by a number of browsers as have other features listed there such as geolocation, websockets, etc. Don't read too much into it. HTML5 is a single specification, it doesn't mean that it's the only specification browsers support. For instance, all browsers support CSS - CSS is not in the HTML5 specification, it's a distinct specification. There are many logistical advantages etc, again, don't read too much into it.<div>

I saw HTML5 spec 's <a href="http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/introduction.html#introduction" target="_blank">introduction</a> includes the following content,<br>"Features that are not currently in this document that were in the
past considered part of HTML5...,, include:... Web Storage"<br><br>I know "<span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Verdana;" lang="EN-US"></span><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Verdana;" lang="EN-US"></span><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Verdana;" lang="EN-US">Web Storage" provides ways
for web applications to store key-value data in the browser, effectively
replacing cookies, but I am curious why is the feature removed from HTML5 Spec? or Why </span><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Verdana;" lang="EN-US">can't </span><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Verdana;" lang="EN-US"> the feature be contained in HTML5? thanks.<br>
