<h1>The Storage getItem() Method</h1>
<p>This example demonstrates how to use the getItem() method to get the value of a specified session storage item.</p>
<h2>Missing sessionStorage items?</h2>
<p>Since you might not have the specified item stored in your session storage, we have added a script that creates it for you.</p>
<button onclick="createItem()">Create session storage item</button>
<h2>Get the value of the session storage item named "test1"</h2>
<p>Click the button to get the item value:</p>
<button onclick="myFunction()">Get the item value</button>
<p id="demo"></p>
<script>
function createItem() {
  sessionStorage.test1 = "hello";
}
function myFunction() {
  var x = sessionStorage.getItem("test1");
  document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = x;
}
</script>
