Answer 1

If window A created window B then the storage event gets trigger

try it out with this code

create a file called a.htm and add this script in

(function() {
    function write(s) {
        var d = document.createElement('div');
        d.innerHTML = s;
        document.body.appendChild(d);
    }

    var w = window.open('','window_b');
    if (w.location.host === '') {
        w.location.href = 'http://localhost/b.htm';
    }

    if (window.localStorage) {
        setInterval(function() {
            var now = (new Date()).toTimeString();
            localStorage.removeItem('date');
            localStorage.setItem('date', now);
            write('fired on ' + now);
        }, 3000);
    }
    else {
        write('local storage not detected!');
    }
})();

create a file called b.htm and add this script

(function() {
    function write(s) {
        var d = document.createElement('div');
        d.innerHTML = s;
        document.body.appendChild(d);
    }

    window.addEventListener('storage', function(e) {  
        e.newValue && write('received ' + e.newValue);
    });

})();

then just browse to a.htm
