** On '''Chrome''' you could start Chrome with the '''--ignore-certificate-errors''' command-line parameter which will disable SSL certificate checks for the session. | ** On '''Chrome''' you could start Chrome with the '''--ignore-certificate-errors''' command-line parameter which will disable SSL certificate checks for the session. | ||
* Firefox Nightly (as of 03-28) seems to fail to register SW - [https://jakearchibald.github.io/trained-to-thrill/ https://jakearchibald.github.io/trained-to-thrill/] works in chrome as intended, while ''navigator.serviceWorker.controller''returns ''null'' on Nightly even after install, should be using Maple builds: [http://blog.wanderview.com/sw-builds/ http://blog.wanderview.com/sw-builds/] (download/install & use '''firefox -P -no-remote'''''to create a new profile and run it next to standard firefox)'' | * Firefox Nightly (as of 03-28) seems to fail to register SW - [https://jakearchibald.github.io/trained-to-thrill/ https://jakearchibald.github.io/trained-to-thrill/] works in chrome as intended, while ''navigator.serviceWorker.controller''returns ''null'' on Nightly even after install, should be using Maple builds: [http://blog.wanderview.com/sw-builds/ http://blog.wanderview.com/sw-builds/] (download/install & use '''firefox -P -no-remote'''''to create a new profile and run it next to standard firefox)'' | ||
** Later nightly builds like that of 04-10 and later seem to work, mostly obsolating the need for using SW-specific builds. | |||
* NOTE that '''Chrome''' (as of V43.0.2342.2 dev (64-bit)) '''does not support add/addAll''' methods out-of-the-box on opened cache objects - you will need a polyfill ([https://github.com/coonsta/cache-polyfill) https://github.com/coonsta/cache-polyfill)] to use it.

* NOTE Chrome's Service Worker communication samples ([https://github.com/GoogleChrome/samples/tree/gh-pages/service-worker/post-message) https://github.com/GoogleChrome/samples/tree/gh-pages/service-worker/post-message)] recommend using the MessagePort API for passing messages between the SW/page. Firefox does not really implement the API {{bug|952139}} - further info is required on implementation status or on how could this be overcome. | |||
