Is it possible to ask a Firefox (version 15) user for more space (> 5MB) for the AppCache?

We're planning to develop a WebApp for a customer with users who are only using Firefox 15 (or IE8) and the whole product database (800 products with some attributes and images) and a order list generator should be able to work offline.

Any help or other solutions based on Firefox 15 or IE8 would be appreciated.

browser.cache.offline.capacity seems to be the pref you want. By default it's 500M, which really ought to be plenty!

Go to about:config and type 'offline' in the search box to get to the pref.

Lots more information in mozillazine, but it's down at the moment; use google's cache: http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:Y607-mxIMCEJ:kb.mozillazine.org/Browser.cache.offline.capacity+&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=us&client=firefox-beta

  • I think the appcache would be stored in the DOM storage, https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/DOM/Storage - dom.storage.default_quota (by default 5120 KB) – Florian Nagel Sep 14 '12 at 11:40
