The length read-only property of the Storage interface returns an integer representing the number of data items stored in the Storage object.
var aLength = Storage.length;
An integer.
The following function adds three data items to the local storage for the current domain, then returns the number of items in the storage:
function populateStorage() {
localStorage.setItem('bgcolor', 'yellow');
localStorage.setItem('font', 'Helvetica');
localStorage.setItem('image', 'cats.png');
localStorage.length; // should return 3
} Note: For a real world example, see our Web Storage Demo.
