Thanks, Rob,

I hope that feature is on the list – it would make web apps practical for the platform. We look forward to being there!

George,
Unfortunately, IE9 doesn’t support the manifest feature to run offline web apps. That being said, you can easily “pin” web apps to a tile on the start screen.

Is there any support for the ‘manifest’ feature in the HTML tag? This is what allows apps to run in offline mode.

Also, is there a way to save web apps to the Home Screen?

With these two features, web apps will be practical on WP devices.
