Best way to store Leaflet map extent between page visits?

[ab16.a1]

When I return to my website I want to get my last map extent back.

What is the right way to do that please?

I could use Javascript to write a cookie? What event should drive the writing of a cookie?

Any assistance appreciated.

You might look into this  => https://github.com/mlevans/leaflet-hash for some of what you will need, I believe

Thanks Arnie the hashes could be useful later in my project.

Yeah I need the between session saving.

I can get the extend out of getBounds()

I think I would call getCenter() and getZoom() and save those 2 values somewhere when the window/tab is closing. Looks like the onunload event is fired when a window is closed or page is unloaded http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/event_onunload.asp

OK guys I've determined that wanting to keep extent between page views is a design flaw in my application.

I realized that each page has completely different functionality (e.g 1 page I draw polygons another I review points) and starting a page with fitBounds or setView is enough.

This is probably why there is nearly no chatter on this topic.

Thank you for you patience.
