how to configure a manifest file

This is my first time in stackoverflow so if i break any rule or something, please tell me and ill try to fix it asap.

Im trying to configure a manifest (appcache) file to download 2 files( one html and one JS) and be able to use that HTML in offline mode, but after many trys, i couldnt configure the manifest file (or maybe is something else fail?) to store the appcache files.

At the moment i have in the same folder, 3 files: juego.html , damas.appcache and juego.js

damas.appcache:

CACHE MANIFEST
CACHE:
juego.html
juego.js
NETWORK:
*

and in the html file... juego.html:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html manifest="damas.appcache">
...

I dont think that more HTML code or the javascript code is needed for my explanation but if needed, ill put it.

¿How can i got the files to be stored in local?

Thanks to all

It's possible that you have an older version of the html cached. This seems to be the case because your setup looks correct, but you are missing a unique value—such as a timestamp—in your damas.appcache. The cache manifest only gets updated when there is a change to that file.

It's also possible that your mime-type is incorrect. Ensure that the mime-type set for the cache manifest is set to text/cache-manifest.

Apache: AddType text/cache-manifest .appcache
