User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/38.0.2125.111 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce:

Create a simple html page with a cache manifest
view it
check about:cache to verify pages are cached
refresh with ctrl-f5 - page displays correctly
note in about:cache, the html file is still listed, but now has data size of 0 bytes
refresh page with normal f5, get an "Offline mode" error

See example.zip to reproduce. Extract and visit "test.html". (on a server - appcache does not apply when opening from the file system)


Actual results:

Page shows an error - "Firefox is currently in offline mode and can't browse the Web."


Expected results:

Not sure, I don't know if ctrl-f5 behavior is standardized. But certainly not this.

This reproduces on beta as well.

Thanks for the test case!  I forgot to duplicate this code in the new cache code as well.
