Hello,<br />
<br />
We currently have a function that generates a unique ID (see below). I was wondering how we could update the function to take the last 20 digits of the unique id and push it into localStorage for the session. The function also needs to overwrite the unique id stored in localStorage if the function is execuited a 2nd or more times within the same session.<br />
<br />
var _unqid = '' + Math.abs((function(s){retu<wbr />rn s.split(&quot;&quot;).reduce(functio<wbr />n(a,b){a=(<wbr />(a&lt;&lt;5)-a)+<wbr />b.charCode<wbr />At(0);retu<wbr />rn a&amp;a},0);})(navigator.userA<wbr />gent)) + &quot;&quot;&nbsp;+ new Date().getTime() + &quot;&quot;&nbsp;+ Math.floor(Math.random() * 1000);<br />
var x =_unqid;<br />
<br />
Thanks

JavaScript truncate variable value and save to localStorage

JavaScript is a dynamic, object-based language commonly used for client-side scripting in web browsers. Recently, server side JavaScript frameworks have also emerged. JavaScript runs on nearly every operating system and  in almost every mainstream web browser.

HTML (HyperText Markup Language) is the main markup language for creating web pages and other information to be displayed in a web browser, providing both the structure and content for what is sent from a web server through the use of tags. The current implementation of the HTML specification is HTML5.

A scripting language is a programming language that supports scripts, programs written for a special run-time environment that automate the execution of tasks that could alternatively be executed one-by-one by a human operator. Scripting languages are often interpreted (rather than compiled). Primitives are usually the elementary tasks or API calls, and the language allows them to be combined into more complex programs. Environments that can be automated through scripting include software applications, web pages within a web browser, the shells of operating systems (OS), embedded systems, as well as numerous games. A scripting language can be viewed as a domain-specific language for a particular environment; in the case of scripting an application, this is also known as an extension language.
