Increasing 5MB Storage Limit in Chrome

We have a POS app written in html5 and we are using the localStorage to store orders and other info.

I am experiencing the limits of the 5MB that chrome offers and it is causing the app to crash.

Is there an easy way to increase this limitation?

thanks

No, there is no way to increase 5MB localStorage per-domain limit. You can use IndexedDB instead for storing your data, though. Read more: IndexedDB and Limits

Check this link, it discusses your problem and it might help you

The db file path for chromium and chrome on windows vista look like...

C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Chromium\User Data\Default\Application Cache\Index 
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Application Cache

Here's the sql statement to run...

insert into Quota values("http://127.0.0.1:8008/", 100000000);

You can run that command using the sqlite3 command line tool available here, http://www.sqlite.org/download.html. Put whatever origin url you'd to give more storage to in there.
