Prevent back button in Chrome/Edge/IE to reset select value?

[hotjava]

I’m working on a filter that return hits based on values in different select boxes. When you click back in Firefox (54) the values are still present. But in Chrome/Edge/IE the select boxes are reset to blank/default value.

Is there any way to prevent and store the selected values somehow? Mabye with local storage?

Local storage could work, or session storage developer.mozilla.org/es/docs/Web/API/Window/sessionStorage. Why not try this out in a demo?

[hotjava]

I’m testing a solution with sessionstorage, which as I understand it stores data in the tab as long as it’s open.
