Hello all,

I am trying a simple test with the html 5 cache.

Here is a simple web page :

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html manifest="test.manifest">
<head>

</head>
<body>
   <img src="http://www.somewebsite.com/picture.jpg"/>
</body>
</html>

With the following manifest :

CACHE MANIFEST
#v0.1

NETWORK:
http://www.somewebsite.com/

This work fine, the picture is displayed.

My problem is that I won't be able to know from where the picture will come. Here comes the online whitelist wildcard flag, that is supposed to solve my problem.

But with the manifest :

CACHE MANIFEST
#v0.1

NETWORK:
*

The image is not displayed (tested on safari / safari mobile / firefox).

What is not working ?

Is there another way to turn the online whitelist wildcard flag on ?
