I ran into this odd thing when trying the HTML5 offline example. With most recent stable Firebug 1.5.3, the manifest file did not show up in the network panel.
According to the w3c standard it should be served with HTTP header "text/cache-manifest", which could explain why it does not show up. However, I run it via a tiny webserver that serves it (incorrectly) as "application/octet-stream". First of all, not showing .manifest files is this a bug or feature in Firebug? Here are the details of my test.
