I have tried to get some information from W3C regarding the update of an objectStore item in a indexedDB database, but with not so much susccess. I found here a way to do it, bu

Check out this jsfiddle for some examples on how to update IDB records. I worked on that with another StackOverflower -- it's a pretty decent standalone example of IndexedDB that uses indexes and does updates.

The method you seem to be looking for is put, which will either insert or update a record if there are unique indexes. In that example fiddle, it's used like this:

    phodaDB.indexedDB.addUser = function(userObject){
        //console.log('adding entry: '+entryTxt);
        var db = phodaDB.indexedDB.db;
        var trans = db.transaction(["userData"],IDBTransaction.READ_WRITE);
        var store = trans.objectStore("userData");
        var request = store.put(userObject);

        request.onsuccess = function(e){
            phodaDB.indexedDB.getAllEntries();
        };
        request.onerror = function(e){
            console.log('Error adding: '+e);
        };
    };

For what it's worth, you've got some possible syntax errors, misspelling "console" in console.log as "conosole".
