Enable storing of DOM changes (DHTML) #886

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
For applications that rely heavily on DHTML (adding/removing sections of
the dom, adding form elements and keeping track of their names/ids, etc)
there arises the need to update the stored html with these changes when a
user wants to go offline after making a lot of changes.

At the moment, the developer has to attempt to recreate the DOM changes
made by a user that "goes offline" when the page loads - which includes
pulling lots of data from sqlite and the firing various events to make a
host of DOM changes which is very tedious at best.

It would be priceless to be able to update the source to mirror DOM changes
by somehow dumping the current DOM source to file using an update method on
the ResourceStore/ManagedResourceStore class.
