Website which stores filter criteria between tab reloads, but not between tabs.
Hi, So noticed that one of the websites which I am using stores criteria search somewhere. It is persisted between tab reloads but it is not persisted between tabs. I look into session storage it is empty, cleard local storage and indexedDb is empty as well. So my question is - where this webistes stores this criteria search ? (for sure its not a backend).

cookies maybe?
Nope, clear everything and filter still applicable
So you basically have said it's nothing feasible you already checked, and convinced it's not server/backend.... only option left is magic 😆
you may want to take a look on your own
1. Go to https://justjoin.it/
2. Select filters - maybe java, salary range, contract type
3. Map and listing is filtered out
4. Click on specific offer
5. You will be redirected to the page - https://justjoin.it/offers/mindbox-senior-big-data-developer-warszawa
6. Map still persisted search
7. Session storage is empty
8. No query params

I'm not going through those steps sorry. But my crass comment was it's one of those things or the server
What's the full url with the redirect
Probably has search Params
Oh I'm blind you also said none of those 😂
Yea back to magic
I even checked window.name XD
there is something inside local storage but when i replaced java -> js then the search result still shown java instead
@b1mind its not a magic, the data was store in history.state api
that is a new one for me, huh. I didn't think you could use History to store arbitrary info
thanks for updating this, learned something new today
