HTML5 Browser state
This feature is supported in mobile applications only.
You can access information about the network connection state of the browser.
The navigator.onLine attribute returns false, if the browser cannot establish a connection to the network when a remote page is requested. To track the changes in the connection state, you must subscribe to the applicable events: online and offline. The events can be executed in the Window or WorkerGlobalScope object.
