First off: this is a great resource for created an offline app. It's simple. It works. 'nuff said. http://kentbrewster.com/backchannel/
Now, does anybody have a clue as to why I can't create an offline iphone app when the name of the manifest file is cache.manifest? In fact, when the manifest file is named cache.manifest it seems that all caches are always deleted and the app downloads much slower. I spent the last two hours trying to figure out why my app wouldn't load offline. I finally found a working demo app and then started rebuilding mine line by line. The only difference when it finally quit working again was the name of the manifest file!! I repeated renaming it over and over about 5 times just to make sure that it wasn't that I didn't give it enough time to download, etc. demo.manifest, main.manifest work cache.manifest does not Crazy! So I'm curious if there's some sort of rule particular to the iPhone about naming conventions for text/cache-manifest files. P.S. It works in chrome with that name and that's what lots of other tutorials use. AJ ONeal
