Thanks kostysh! I will try it out

Note: this requires the apps to be native to have access to device.Connection

Note: this requires the apps to be native to have access to device.Connection

it is not necessary. In web-app Ext.device.Connection works in Simulator mode - it is all what is need for our task

[jerome76]

If it isn't a native web-app, it wont have access to the libraries in Ext.device. I tried adding it to one of my web-apps and ran it in Chrome and it did not work.

[kostysh]

but it works fine in my non-native app
look into official docs: http://docs.sencha.com/touch/2-0/#!/...ice.Connection

Both the Sencha Packager and PhoneGap implementations will use the native functionality to determine if the current device is online. The Simulator version will simply use navigator.onLine.

confirm that in Chrome (desktop) isOnline method works and uses navigator...

[jerome76]

You gave a local link but I checked the docs. I am not using PhoneGap or Sencha Packager.

When I request navigator.onLine in the console, that works.

[kostysh]

Ups. fixed.
I am not using PhoneGap at this time too. But some guys use.
The main thing that Ext.device.Connection will works without native (with less features) and without any errors. If you have problems with 'production' build of your app - this is completely different question.

[jerome76]

I told ya I am not using an app. I was trying this with a web app (not native, no phonegap, no sencha command). Just a dynamic web project.

this is what I meant
