Remarks

This implementation of IHTMLStorage::setItem differs from IHTMLStorage::setItem in return code only. In IE9 mode, this method might also return W3CException_DOM_QUOTA_EXCEEDED_ERR.

Any valid UTF-16 string, including the empty string, is a valid key name. If bstrKey or bstrValue are not valid UTF-16 strings, the IHTMLStorage::setItem method returns E_INVALIDARG

This method first checks if a key/value pair with the specified bstrKey already exists in the list associated with the object. If not, a new key/value pair with the given value is added to the list. If the key/value pair already exists, the value is updated.

If the size of the value is larger than the disk quota remaining for the storage area, E_OUTOFMEMORY is returned. If necessary, check IHTMLStorage::remainingSpace before storing the value.

Attempts to read or write a secured item from script running in the context of an unsecured URL are not permitted.
