[html5] OnStorage Event

[Jaikishan Jalan]

Thanks Ian.  Yes, it does work. I was checking it in wrong way in my event
handler. The following works

    function OnStorageHandler() {
        if (event.storageArea == localStorage) {
            alert("localstorage");
        } else {
            if (event.storageArea == sessionStorage) {
                alert("sessionStorage");
            }
        }
    }
