How Banner Position Is Remembered for the Current Browser Tab

How Banner Position Is Remembered for the Current Browser Tab describes a current QCUI 1.0.03 implementation detail that matters when you are validating security, session isolation, or support behavior.

Current banner behavior

  • Drag with the primary pointer from the banner itself; button/form controls do not start a drag.
  • Position is clamped inside an 8-pixel viewport margin.
  • After drop, position is saved as qclau-banner-position in sessionStorage.
  • On resize, a custom position is clamped again to remain visible.
  • At widths below 720px, the banner can wrap its contents.

Persistence scope

The saved position belongs to the current browser tab/sessionStorage context. It is not written to the Joomla user profile or QCUI database.

Reset

If a position becomes inconvenient, clear that sessionStorage item or use a fresh browser tab/session and reload.

Session-safety check

After working with How Banner Position Is Remembered for the Current Browser Tab, verify the identities explicitly: the support frontend should show the expected target while active, End impersonation should make that frontend guest, and the original administrator tab should remain the authenticated Super User. Any result that collapses those identities together should be investigated before further use.
