What Joel said :-) (I started gwt-mobile-webkit)
However, I am far from done: The AppCache behaviour is rather 'undefined' when an iframe is involved which is dynamically inserted by Javascript. According to a thread on WHATWG (http://lists.whatwg.org/pipermail/whatwg-whatwg.org/2009-July/021313.html) it seems 'undesired' to use dynamic iframes in conjunction with HTML5's AppCache. The solution seems to just include *all* permutations with their resources to the AppCache manifest, which results in a lot of network overhead - not good for mobile. Another is to introduce a *redirect* GWT linker, which redirects the user to the right permutation page (where an actual permutation-specific appcache is defined) instead of embedding n iframe. I haven't succeeded yet in getting a usable implementation, unfortunately :-( While I'm at it: Any help is greatly appreciated, of course :-P some design doc: http://code.google.com/p/gwt-mobile-webkit/wiki/AppCacheDesign sourcetree: http://code.google.com/p/gwt-mobile-webkit/source/browse/#svn/trunk/gwt-mobile-webkit/applicationcache Cheers, Bart Guijt E: [email protected] T: +31 6 30408987 On 5 feb 2010, at 5 feb, 15:29, Joel Webber wrote: > Karl-Heinz, > > We are planning on adding built-in support for the HTML5 AppCache, but have > not done so yet.
