The channel file addresses some issues with cross domain communication in certain browsers. The contents of the channel.html file can be just a single line:
```html
```
It is important for the channel file to be cached for as long as possible. When serving this file, you must send valid Expires headers with a long expiration period. This will ensure the channel file is cached by the browser which is important for a smooth user experience. Without proper caching, cross domain communication will become very slow and users will suffer a severely degraded experience.
