Installed web app shows different version than in browser - caching

When I load matchflix.ch on my phone, the installed app shows a different version than when I open the site in the phone browser. How can this be?
Details
I know that a service worker is in place for offline mode / caching. However, the web app should behave the same in the browser and in the installed web app, since in the service worker I only listen to the fetch event and do nothing on the install event.
Reproduction
You can check the difference by showing infos of a movie and then click on the yellow play icon. In the new version, it should show something below, while in the old version, a new website opens.

After a few hours, somehow, the version in the app is now the same as in the browser (as it should be). Still don't understand it really, but so far, the problem seems to be solved...

Blazor PWA hosted in kestrel - no automatic update?

I am having a blazor PWA related problem, in an app that is hosted in kestrel webserver. For testing I have it installed on my android phone. Its working great, online and offline.
The "service-worker.published.js", I am using is exactly the same as in the default PWA template.
I can see that after publishing the app, the hashes of the included files change and also the final "service-worker.js" gets updated.
So everything looks good, but I cant get the app to update on my phone. To get an update I have to uninstall it, then clear the browser cache and repeat the installation.
What am I missing here? Is it some setting in the webserver or is there anything missimg in the default "service-worker.published.js"? It looks like a very basic thing!
Greetings,
Frank

Not able to debug phonegap app running on windows 8 mobile

I have a phonegap application that has some layout problems. I can run the app in browser for the most part, and this usually get me over the line. But with a new design I need to debug the application layout on windows phone 8.
I'm currently looking at weinre but its not showing anything on the desktop when browsing the local server, I have added the link to my application I have cleaned up everything I can think of. Still blank. Any good tuts around the ones I have read just copy and paste the original docs or are not on my same error.
There's a public weinre server available here:
https://the-weinre.herokuapp.com/
You may have better luck with that than with your local server. There's a demo available on that page, give that a try and see if it works on your windows 8 mobile device.

The authorization popup for the Google Marketplace whitescreens and doesn't close after install and other problems with the install page

When a user goes to my unlisted marketplace app page and installs my app the authorization popup window just white screens and doesn't close. If I manually close the popup everything moves on like normal. I have a suspicion that it's because my app is unlisted, since I haven't seen the issue with other marketplace apps, but as of right now I can't change that.
Another issue we've had with that page is the Integrate with Google button doesn't seem to respect the current profile the user is using. It always seems to always use the default profile which can be confusing for the user if they wanted to use a different google profile they were currently using.
note: the app url i've posted is used for local development but it happens on our production app as well

Clean app cache in windows phone 7

I am developing an app based on winPho7 (no updated to 7.5 yet)
In my app, I call to a navigator to show a webpage but my problem is that (still testing)when I deploy the app in the phone, it shows the webpage perfectly.
But if I make changes in the webpage, the next time I open the app, it still shows the older one. My app doesn't get new images, new css, new buttons...
In Android I can delete cache and get the new webpage. How can I do it on winpho?
Now, I have to delete the app, install again and then, it will show the new webpage.
To prevent caching, add a random query parameter to the url, e.g. http://example.com/?ignore=425897425.
That will force retrieving the page again.
I hope that that is what you are looking for.

Joomla toolbar for save, publish etc not appearing in admin

I have just installed Joomla 3.1.4 on my local PC. Everything seems fine and it installed successfully. However when I go into admin through Firefox it does not show the admin toolbar in the backend so after making changes I cannot save, publish etc. However when I go into the site through Chrome everything seems to work well and the toolbar appears. I cannot workout what is stopping Firefox from displaying the toolbar. I had installed the site a number of times so Firefox seems to remember something from my previous usage.
I've noticed some strangeness with this latest release, also. It may be an admin template bug. Try scrolling the page when you're ready to save.
Update: I just checked 2 of my J3! sites, and they seem ok. Maybe a cache issue?
