Exceptions
| Exception | Condition |

Remarks
Use this method and check the IHTMLApplicationCache::status before using IHTMLApplicationCache::swapCache.
The IHTMLApplicationCache::update method returns before the update check is complete, so it is a best practice to wait before checking the IHTMLApplicationCache::status property or calling the IHTMLApplicationCache::swapCache method.
The IHTMLApplicationCache::update method is provided for convenience, but is not necessary for basic functionality. Loading or refreshing the page is sufficient.
