title: IE11 'Enable Protected Mode' is breaking the 'Application Cache'
body: <p><strong>Background:</strong></p>
  
  <p>I am building an html5 offline application that should get cached into the browser once it is loaded from the server.
  I use 'Application Cache' and manifest file to get my page working in offline.</p>
  
  <p>My application is running on a Java Oracle weblogic server. </p>
  
  <p><strong>Issue:</strong></p>
  
  <p>In IE11 I get 'Application cache fatal error' when the page is loaded from server and the page wouldn't work offline.</p>
  
  <p><strong>Please have a look at an interesting thing that I noted after playing with the IE11 browser and my web page.</strong></p>
  
  <p>1) In my IE11 browser the 'Enable Protected Mode' option is selected at two places</p>
  
  <p>Internet Options> Security > Local Intranet </p>
  
  <p>Internet Options> Security >Trusted sites</p>
  
  <p>2) If I untick the above mentioned 'Enable Protected Mode' options from the internet option settings and then the page is loaded correctly. I can see that the  'Application Cache' and manifest are created correctly. No error is thrown at the console....thats good</p>
  
  <p>3) If I turn of my weblogic server and try to access the page then the page is loaded correctly from the local Application cache....thats good</p>
  
  <p>4) If I restart my laptop then the IE11 settings switch back to the 'Enable Protected Mode' and now if I try to access the page then IE11 won't load the page as the server is turned off... If I untick  the 'Enable Protected Mode' then the page gets displayed again from the cache.</p>
  
  <p><strong>My questions:</strong></p>
  
  <p>1) What is the 'Enable Protected Mode' doing with  my page's offline capability</p>
  
  <p>2) How should I resolve this issue ?</p>
