How to GZIP a XSLT webpage

Question

Hi, I am working on a webpage and I use XSLT as template engine.

I only send XML and the XSLT file to the requester and let the receiver's browser render it in HTML.

I would like to know how I could GZip the XSL Stylesheet and maybe the XML I'm sending to the requester.

Thank you in advance.

Look into HTTP Compression. This is something you set on your webserver that causes all traffic to be compressed, IF a client's browser supports it.

What web server are you using? This will probably be more of a setting on your webserver than coding on your part.
