how can I save the state of toggle buttons even after the page is refreshed using jQuery. I googled it and found that we can do it using local Storage but how to apply local storage in jQuery all I could find was examples on JavaScript. please help. Below is the code to toggle(hide/show) table columns.

jQuery($ => {
  let $headings = $('.heading');

  $('.hide').on('click', e => {
    let $el = $('.col' + e.target.dataset.targetIndex).toggle();
    let colspan = $('table tbody tr:first > td:visible').length / $headings.length;
    $headings.prop('colspan', colspan);
  });
});
table,
th,
td {
  border: 1px solid black;
}
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<table>
  <thead>
    <tr>
      <th class="heading" colspan="7">abcd</th>
      <th class="heading" colspan="7">abcd</th>

    jQuery is also just javascript in the end. So you can use whatever you found and use it together with your jQuery code. Commented Sep 14, 2022 at 11:14
