--- Comment #6 from Brett Zamir <[email protected]> --- ApplicationCache--assuming the difficulties of your integrating with ResourceLoader could be overcome--can still be of use: 1. By utilizing a permanent cache, resource files don't need to be periodically redownloaded (e.g., if the browser auto-deletes its regular cache). It could optimize performance and minimize server requests (though browsers would periodically try pinging to see if the cache manifest file itself had been updated). In other words, the whole site doesn't need to be cached; appcache caches only those files designated, so appcache can be used even in environments not meant to go completely offline. 2. In combination with my proposed functionality in bug 45981 , users would be able to selectively cache pages into a local IndexedDB database so that when offline, they could browse those cached files (and this appcache issue would be needed to ensure the application itself would still work in these cases). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
