In short: FF seems to ignore cache entries I add via my extension. In detail: I'm writing a FF extension and I would like to create a new cache entry and have FF fetch the resourece (html/image/script) from cache rather then from the server. can I do this? I'm looking for someone who did this, right now I'm able to create a new cache entry (and view it about:cache) but FF seems to ignore this stuff and access the server for the cached resources. Any ideas? Hi Mark, I wonder if the following is going to change in FireFox 3, and if you have an idea if it works in FF 2.
