I am working on an offline web app using a cache manifest file. I am having trouble refreshing my javascript files. If I change a .js file (which is listed in the manifest file) and I then change the manifest file version no. and save it, then the changed .js file does not get reloaded on the client. What do I have to do to get .js files to refresh?
Thanks
That’s because the webserver tells the browser cache static files for a few hours. So the browser doesn’t know the manifest file is changed. You can clear all the application data ‘or’ config the web server the manifest is not cacheable…

If you want to clear your app cache on chrome use chrome://appcache-internals/
and by hand you have to search in C:\Documents and Settings\YOURUSERNAME\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Cache
