HTML5 offline cache doesn't seem to work


hi all,

trying understand how html5 offline cache works, can develop offline web apps, , having real hard time @ it. in fact, i've been testing on , off since last 3 weeks. i've read numerous tutorials, including docs on offline cache available @ developer.apple.com. far haven't gotten work properly.

set cache manifest this:

code:
  cache manifest  index.html  icon.jpg    network:    
notice there no resources depend on server, leave network: section blank (the apple dev docs required, though not including makes no difference).

set index.html this:

code:
  <!doctype html>  <html manifest="cache.manifest">      <head>          <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />  		<meta name="viewport" content="user-scalable=no, width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0, maximum-scale=1.0"/>      	<meta name="apple-mobile-web-app-capable" content="yes" />       		<meta name="apple-mobile-web-app-status-bar-style" content="black" />  	    <link rel="apple-touch-icon" href="icon.jpg"/>    <script>  cache = window.applicationcache;    cache.onchecking = function()  {    statbar.innerhtml="status: checking";  }    cache.ondownloading= function()  {    statbar.innerhtml="status: downloading";  }      cache.oncached = function()   {    statbar.innerhtml="status: cached:";  }    cache.onerror =  function()  {  	statbar.innerhtml='status: error ocurred.';  }    cache.onupdateready= function()  {  	statbar.innerhtml='updated';  }    cache.onprogress= function()  {  	statbar.innerhtml = statbar.innerhtml + "progress!";  }    </script>          <title>new web project</title>      </head>      <body>          <h1>new web project page</h1>  	          <div id="statbar">status:</div>  <script>  statbar = document.getelementbyid("statbar");  </script>      </body>  </html>    
i have set .htaccess file correct mime-type:

code:
addtype text/cache-manifest .manifest  
when accessed on ipod, progress div displays "checking" "downloading" few times, throws onerror event, displaying "an error ocurred". and, if add home screen , click on it, opens followed "no connection" message, closes automatically.

know doesn't have objective-c, still has ios programming, question not banned being off-topic. not asking here if didn't feel i've run out of other online resources me troubleshoot problem. so, if can tell me i'm doing wrong, appreciated. (the pages hosted on http://www.factordice.com/html5).
 

please, if has information on issue, appreciate help. if ios not support html5 offline caché, i'd know (although information on developer.apple.com claims does). i've run out of options, , still not know doing wrong. in anticipation.
