Hi,
We have developed an application which can support offline mode. This is done using html 5, appcache file. The appcache file has a fallback page, which is suppose to load when there is no internet connectivity. The offline page works fine, when the user is still online on the application and all of a sudden the connectivity with the application is lost. Here are the steps,
The application is online.
User logs into the application.
He visits the page which has the appcache file defined in the manifest.
The pages/js/css are successfully cached.
After this, the connection to the application is lost (simulated offline mode).
In the same browser session (Without closing) , when the user tries to access the application , the fallback page loads correctly.
Now , the user closes the browser and re-opens it. When the user tries open the application, which is offline, the fallback page does not load.
I tried setting up different settings for "Check for newer versions of stored page" such as "Automatically", "Never" etc. But none of these options work.
Would like to know if there are more settings that need to made in order to make it work. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
