Setting and getting localStorage with jQuery : <p>I am trying out localStorage and attempting at getting text from a div and storing it in localStorage, however, it sets it as an [object Object] and returns [object Object]. Why is this happening?</p>

<p><div class="snippet" data-lang="js" data-hide="false" data-console="true" data-babel="false">
<div class="snippet-code">
<pre class="snippet-code-js lang-js prettyprint-override"><code>localStorage.content = $('#test').html('Test');

$('#test').html(localStorage.content);</code></pre>
<pre class="snippet-code-html lang-html prettyprint-override"><code>&lt;script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;

&lt;div id="test"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</code></pre>
</div>
</div>
</p>
