Can cache manifest files be served from a different host?


I am hosting a cache manifest file for a friend, because his server serves manifest files as plain text and he can't change it. He's hosting the rest of his pages himself, on his server. So his <html> tag has a manifest attribute that is a complete URL that points to my server.

But it doesn't seem to be working. Is this because the cache manifest file is from a different host as the web page that it is in?


Solution

  • The manifest attribute can point to an absolute URL or relative path, but an absolute URL must be under the same origin as the web application

    Source.
