A key range can be a single value or a range with upper and lower bounds or endpoints. If the key range has both upper and lower bounds, then it is bounded; if it has no bounds, it is unbounded. A bounded key range can either be open (the endpoints are excluded) or closed (the endpoints are included). To retrieve all keys within a certain range, you can use the following code constructs:
The bounds can be open (that is, the bounds exclude the endpoint values) or closed (that is, the bounds include the endpoint values). By default, the bounds are closed.
The IDBLocaleAwareKeyRange interface of the IndexedDB API is a Firefox-specific version of IDBKeyRange — it functions in exactly the same fashion, and has the same properties and methods, but it is intended for use with IDBIndex objects when the original index had a locale value specified upon its creation (see createIndex()'s optionalParameters) — that is, it has locale aware sorting enabled.
