allaboutrajini site tells you to stop your internet connection to enter the site.I guess it determines whether the connection is on or off with javascript or something like gmail and qoura do.
But how can they store so much of flash animated content locally in the browser in such a short time?
It loads a 160 KB swf file, Design.swf, plus a 134 KB sound.swf file.

It loads a XML file, config.xml, repeatedly, to check the connection, using ActionScript.

All the graphics are vector graphics, and contrary to what many would let you believe the swf format is pretty effective in storing vector graphics and the ActionScript needed to provide the interactivity.
As far as I can tell, there is no specific trickery going on for "offline-caching", it simply loads everything that's needed directly at startup, the 160 + 134 KB of swf content.
