[OpenLayers-Users] Controling cache size and storage location for CacheWrite

[Andreas Hocevar]

There is currently no way to do this from within OpenLayers, but you should
be able to do this on the application level using the same events that
update the number of items in the cache in the cache-write example. Then
turn off the Cache Write control when the storage gets full.

The one thing I don't know is if it is possible at all to get the fill
level of the local storage from the browser. This part would be a question
for a different channel.

Address.
