title: using HTML5 session storage in asp.net mvc3
body: <p>Explanation of the problem:</p>
  
  <p>Right now my asp.net mvc 3 application is using <code>cookieles="auto"</code> setting which I really hate and I am trying to find something that will allow me to turn that feature off. </p>
  
  <p>So I came across HTML5 storage solutions and I am having some trouble understanding the idea behind it. So basically all I need to do is take my <code>userID</code> variable and move it from one page to another and then on the backend I pull out this userID and pass data to view as a model. Now, how can I do it without cookies and using HTML5 storage? If it's only accessible via JavaScript do I need to pass it via ajax to my controllers? But I don't see any sense in this since I already passed my model to the view with empty userID because the cookie was empty. </p>
  
  <p>Is there a way to access the HTML5 storage in the backend? Maybe I am missing something here, please advise!</p>
