In Safari 7, the main html file with a manifest is loadable when offline, but none of the external resources are loaded, even if they're listed in the manifest file as cached. Safari's resource pane lists the files as in the application cache, but it will not load them. I've tried an extremely simple test, checked MIME type of the manifest file, renamed the manifest file, and tried other demos. Here's an example that works fine on Chrome, but on Safari it will not load the sticky image when offline: http://htmlfive.appspot.com/static/stickies.html
This is the same problem described in AppCache misbehaving in Safari, firefox, but I think that question doesn't make the problem as clear, and I wanted to provide a question with a concrete demo. Is there a work-around, or does Safari 7 totally not support application cache beyond the primary html file? Thanks!
Clear Cache in Safari version 7 on Mac OSX
You have two options to clear the cache in Safari version 6:
Use the "Empty Caches" option
Select which items you want to clear by using the "Reset" option

Using firefox, the toolbar appears as expected, not on chrome or internet explorer.
How do I fix this? Thanks
Clear your browser cache.
Check the console for any errors.
Check your website for conflicting CSS styles.
If you are using any third-party plugins, try one of the official presets (Basic, Standard, Full) and make sure you're using the latest version.
This is a really weird problem that appeared in the recent version of Chrome.
I have a huge app that loads hundreds of stylesheets (in dev mode). When the page loads, obviously all styles are applied but background images are missing!
If I just do nothing and wait, suddenly the images start loading randomly...
Using dev tools I checked the network tab to see if the images are requested.. but no, just a few of them appear in contrast to the previous version of Chrome.
Does anyone know if any kind of optimization has been added in Chrome that makes images load lazily? Obviously that implementation is buggy and does not consider a page with a lot of stylesheets!
This problem does not affect the app in production, where all the stylesheets are packed and reduced to just ~10.

I had a similar problem with our web site on Chrome 27.0.1453.93 and 27.0.1453.94. It turns out that Chrome seemed to think that all of our .gif images were corrupt. They wouldn't render in Chrome but they would render fine in IE, Firefox, and older Chrome versions.
I'm not sure what the underlying issue was, but I opened the images in Photoshop and re-saved them and now it works fine.
I just began to explore browsers other than IE and I came across the following behaviour:
In IE9, Flash movies (loading external mp4s) are cached so when you go back to the page it loads from the local copy, whereas in other browsers they seem to start downloading the movie again instead of using a cached copy.
Is this correct or am I missing something?
EDIT: I think Chrome also uses caching like IE9. so the question refers to Firefox and Safari only.
LATEST: Ok I have played around with Safari and Chrome and the issue is not to do with the caching. The issue is in flash swf, when I am loading external movies into the same player because I am using LOAD in actionscript it loads from the beginning because of the difference of the MP4 file. whereas using the same clip it uses the cached movie.
Is there a way caching the played movies from actionscript?
I have gone through the horrors of Flash caching files as well, however it was FF and Chrome that gave me the most trouble. Unfortunately, there is no way to control how the browsers cache. That is up to the user of the browser. Through an SWF you can not tell the browser NOT to cache and you can not tell the browser TO cache.
Does that answer your question?
I'm having troubles testing a StageVideo file locally. The HTML file that contains the swf loads perfectly in Chrome & FireFox, but when I go to open it in Internet Explorer 9 nothing happens (it just shows a white screen).
I've added the permissions for the location to the 'Global Security Settings' tab of the Flash settings manager (on the Macromedia website). I've also checked in the IE9 settings to make sure that it allows GPU rendering.
Has anyone encountered anything similar or have any suggestions as to why it might be blocked in IE9?
Thanks in advance.
My gut feeling is that you don't have the latest Flash Player for IE, but do have it for Chrome/FF since they're 2 different versions. The swf probably doesn't even load up because of the Flash Player requirement.
I develop a GWT application and use mozilla firefox for testing. I am looking for a way to configure firefox to not cache css files of my application. Because it often happens that I forget to clean the firefox cache and work on my application with old css styles.
Is it possible to configure mozilla firefox to not cache css files?
The Web Developer extension in Firefox lets you disable all caching. This should work for CSS, as well. It'll also help prevent those "doh" moments when the app starts working after you clear the cache.
You can just go to about:config and set both browser.cache.disk.enable and browser.cache.memory.enable to false. It will prevent everything from being cached, not just CSS. (I assume that's what the Web Developer extension is doing)
