In Safari Privacy Browsing, basil.reset() is not clearing out things stored in cookie #45

Hi there, Strange to read that. Do you run it in Safari desktop or mobile ? Could you provide maybe a jsfiddle ou jsbin I could run to show the issue and start debugging? Best |

http://jsbin.com/ripivolawe/1/edit?html,js,console I thought basil would automatically check to see if it can write to session if not move onto cookie, but it seems as though it doesn't move onto cookies in this jsbin. I'm on safari 9.1.2 on macOS10.11.6 desktop. Let me know if you find anything. Thank you! |

Hum. Cannot run JSbin in private mode, there is a localstorage error (that's why basil here after all ;)) I made that little snippet to test on my computer: <!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/basil.js/0.4.4/basil.min.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript">
var __log = function (log, replace) {
document.write('> ' + log.replace('%s', replace) + '<br/>');
}
var basil = new Basil({storages: ['session', 'cookie']});
__log('saved start on page loading: <strong>%s</strong> (should be null)', basil.get('start'));
__log('setting start to true');
basil.set('start', true);
__log('start value now: <strong>%s</strong> (should be true)', basil.get('start'));
__log('resetting now');
basil.reset();
__log('start status after reset: <strong>%s</strong> (should be null)', basil.get('start'));
</script>
</body>
</html>And it is perfectly working on my side on Safari 9.1 (11601.5.17.1) and MacOS 10.11.4 (15E65). |
In regular browsing, basil.reset() gets rid of all inputs because we're using session storage, but in safari private browsing, sessionStorage and localStorage are both forbidden, so we write to the cookie, but reset() is not clearing those out.
Any ideas on why that is?
