store javascript object rsa private key

Hi,
Is there a way to store the private key object in a javascript session? I've tried JSON.stringify, but when I parse the object, the decryption fails. The object seems to lose part of the object.

Thanks,
Jason

In case it is still needed,

Issue #3

  function serializeRSAKey(key) {
    return JSON.stringify({
      coeff: key.coeff.toString(16),
      d: key.d.toString(16),
      dmp1: key.dmp1.toString(16),
      dmq1: key.dmq1.toString(16),
      e: key.e.toString(16),
      n: key.n.toString(16),
      p: key.p.toString(16),
      q: key.q.toString(16)
    })
  }

  function deserializeRSAKey(key) {
    let json = JSON.parse(key);
    let rsa = new RSAKey();
    rsa.setPrivateEx(json.n, json.e, json.d, json.p, json.q, json.dmp1, json.dmq1, json.coeff);
    return rsa;
  }

Thanks for the response! I will have to give that a try. I was able to get a work around by using a window object with the window dot format
e.g.
var privateKey = cryptico.generateRSAKey(passPhrase, bits);
window.privateKey = privateKey;

and then use the window.privateKey in another function when called in the session.

Not sure if one is better or more secure than the other.

Thanks,
