Q: 

IE 8 dialog windows not decompressing files

Hi,

I've got a website where we have pre-compressed all of our HTML files. In general this works fine, but since IE 8 has come out some people are finding that they can not use some parts of the website.

We've used the showModalDialog command to open a dialog window and pointing to one of our pre-compressed files but it displays it just show up as strange characters (ie not decompressed). Now it only happens in the dialog. I'm pretty sure our compression is all fine because the page they are viewing to open the dialog is also compressed.

Has anyone else come across this or got any suggestions cuz i'm stumped???

Thanks, Mike
