Bug Description
Binary package hint: chromium-browser
chromium-browser 5.0.307.
chromium-browser does not do a good job detecting when the user is online/offline. If you don't have a net connection it just displays an error page stating
"This webpage is not available.
The webpage at http://…blah… might be temporarily down or it may have moved permanently
to a new web address.".
Firefox handles this situation much better and displays an "offline" mode page. Would be nice if chromium had similar functionality.
