Mobile Safari 5mb HTML5 application cache limit?

Question

It\'s becoming evident in my testing that there\'s a 5mb size limit on Mobile Safari\'s implementation of HTML5\'s application cache.

Does anyone know how to circu

Answer 1

I tried to write a simple test with this manifest:

CACHE MANIFEST

This cache will need 11.4MB of storage.

When I open a page include that manifest file, it say something like that: "This website require to use up to 25MB of storage, do you want to increase local storage?".

I think I got what the way iOS do:

• You only have 5MB for local storage (include HTML5 application cache)
• If your web need more, Safari need user's agreement for some packages (up to 10MB, or 25MB, or more...)

Hope that useful for you.
