Session in client side

Hello,

I have a page. In that I am showing dropdown list. According to the values I am viewing the tables. When I am selecting values from the dropdown, it renders a table & views it. Everything is happening on client side. When I refresh the page, it goes to the fist value in the dropdown (rather I should be in the last selected dropdown value). How can I manage this in client side session ?

Thanks

I don't understand what you mean by client side session. If you mean how to use the session variable in rails then have a look at the Rails Guide on Active Controller, it has a section of the use of the session variable.

While you are at it work through all the other guides, they will answer many of your questions.

Also work right through a tutorial such as railstutorial.org which will introduce you to the basics of Rails.

1) set the value on the server on select and get it back on page reload 2) save it to a cookie 3) save it to HTML5 Local Storage
