Depends on the usage of the word(s):

"I am taking my computer offline" is proper in that context.

"That pilot is flying way off line." is proper in that context.

I assume you are asking about the computer related term, and I would say that it is all one word. (as above.)

Microsoft thinks offline is one word...at least that's how they spell it in I.E.

In Word it is one.

No, I just thought that your smartass remark <<.........should this even be asked!>> was a clear sign you didn't know the answer.

Internet Explorer has it as one word in the &quot;Work Offline&quot; option.
