I am receiving "DOMException: The quota has been exceeded." ERRORS

I am using a WooCommerce plug that allows for website manipulation via real time CSS changes. I am repeatedly receiving this message, and the browser freezes and has to be reloaded:


DOMException: The quota has been exceeded.

Uncaught DOMException: The quota has been exceeded.


I dont seem to have this issue with other browsers. I would like to keep using FireFox, how do I fix this? Ive already cleared the cache and current settings for memory are at 1 gig... it only buys me some time as eventually the symptoms reappear.

Thanks. I did. Just seems like a backwards way of doing things having to clear the cache and storage out manually... Why has FF not fixed this?

That did not work. I am still receiving the same DOM error. Anyone?

I think I found a solution. Instead of clearing the storage and cache I increased the storage...

about:config -> dom.storage.default_quota -> default is 5MB... I changed it to 50MB... so far so good.
