html5 application cache joomla website

we build multiple websites for our clients based on a Joomla installation we have customised.

We have to support back to ie7 but I would like to start making these websites available offline. Do people think this is a good idea seeing as this is not an application?

Also how do people feel this would work with content that would be changing on a semi regular basis?

I welcome your thoughts?

Thanks

Firstly you should note that any offline functionality you implement using AppCache will only be available to IE users with version 10 or greater (caniuse.com).

Despite the name, making websites (as well as web applications) available offline is very much a valid use case of AppCache.

There's a good introduction to the subject here and an excellent article here, including the rationale for using the technology and the gotchas encountered in doing so, from a guy who used AppCache extensively in a recent project.
