HTML5 cache manifest no cache for html file itself

Question

index.php:

cache.manifest

CACHE MANIFEST

CACHE:

/img.png
FALLBACK:
/ /offlin         


        

Answer 1

I had the same problem.

I used an iframe to load a page called 'go_offline.html' this page has the manifest attribute on the html element and some dummy content.

the iframe is hidden using css

this way only the dummy page is cached and all requests are caught by the fallback page in the .manifest file
