I am compressing html files with gzip. The browser (FF 3.0.10) does not decompress or display index.html.gz (pre-compressed on the server) when I request index.html Where can I confirm the zipped header "content-encoding" and the browsers "Accept-Encoding"? (I am using the zlib API in C for zipping) Thanks. ...
I have an html file saved in gzip format. The browser displays the html file but without the javascript and CSS. Non-zipped html files in the same directory do display correctly. In addition, I saved the source from the compressed html file and it reopened correctly, with JS and CSS applied. What is different about displaying the zipp...
The question fits in the title. I am not interested in what the spec recommend but what the mix of browsers currently deployed support the best. Google Docs gzips their JS. The Google AJAX Libraries API CDN gzips JS. Yahoo gzips the JS for their YUI files. The Yahoo home page gzips their JS. So I think that the answer to my question ...
We already know deflate encoding is a winner over gzip with respect to speed of encoding, decoding and compression size. So why do no large sites (that I can find) send it (when I use a browser that accepts it)? Yahoo claims deflate is "less effective". Why? I maintain HTTP server software that prefers deflate, so I'd like to know if ...
I want to disable chunked transfer encoding on my web server, in order to avoid this bug: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/871205 . Unfortunately, I need to support IE6 on Win2k, so they cannot install the patch. I found instructions to set AspEnableChunkedEncoding to FALSE, but this does not seem to solve my problem. I believe this is b...
I have 100 of .gz files which I need to de-compress. I have couple of questions a) I am using the code given at http://www.roseindia.net/java/beginners/JavaUncompress.shtml to decompress the .gz file. Its working fine. Quest:- is there a way to get the file name of the zipped file. I know that Zip class of Java gives of enumeration of...
I have a C# application that communicates with a PHP-based SOAP web service for updates and licensing. I am now working on a feedback system for users to submit errors and tracelogs automatically through the software. Based on a previous question I posted, I felt that a web service would be the best way to do it (most likely to work pr...
I run an ASP.NET application on IIS 6.0. Usually I have compression turned on for both dynamic and static files. However, I've turned compression off temporarily, but "ScriptResource.axd" is still sent compressed. This does not feel like a misconfiguration, as "WebResource.axd" is not compressed. What is the difference between ScriptRes...
I am using DeflaterOutputStream to compress data as a part of a proprietary archive file format. I'm then using jcraft zlib code to decompress that data on the other end. The other end is a J2ME application, hence my reliance on third party zip decompression code and not the standard Java libraries. My problem is that some files zip and...
When installing a gem on my system, I get the following error: gem install blackbook --version ">= 1.0.7" --source http://github.com/tamoyal/blackbook/tree/master ERROR: While executing gem ... (Zlib::GzipFile::Error) not in gzip format Any ideas as to why this is happening? I built the gem so maybe it is something wrong with my...
Does anyone have gzip (static compression) working with IIS7 and PHP running under Fast CGI? The gzip works on our server with ASP.NET apps compressing JS and CSS files but doesn't seem to work with a PHP application. ...
I've been using Yahoo's YSLOW to try and make my pages go faster at AgentX I am using the below compress filter. When I run the site through visual studio YSLOW says that all the files are compressed and I get an A when I view the live site it gets an E and says my files need to be gzipped. Can anyone explain? public class Compre...
Now I'm not making use of any compression method,just put the below between the body tag: <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="Client/Css/all.css" /> Is it possible to use ob_start("ob_gzhandler") in PHP to compress this css file? And how? ...
I'm trying to serve a gzipped version of a text/html page in Django, but Firefox is telling me there's a content encoding error. NOTES: I realize this is not a best practice and I'm most likely going to use mod_gzip. This is just a learning exercise to understand what's going on. I know about the Django gzip middleware-- it has probl...
I serve pre-compressed CSS and JS files on my site, and IE6-8 and FF is working perfectly with my .htaccess file. # Compressed files RewriteCond %{HTTP:Accept-Encoding} .*gzip.* AddEncoding x-gzip .gz AddType application/x-javascript .gz AddType text/css .gz I call the files with the .gz extension already [example]: <link rel="styles...
Hey all, I'm using mod_deflate on Apache 2.2 and the compression level is set to 9. I've fine tuned every possible aspects of the site based on the recommendations of YSlow (v2) and have managed to get an overall A grade (Total Score: 91) as well as on all categories except for: Make fewer HTTP requests (Grade C - I'm still workin...
I'm trying to play with my IIS7 compression settings in my web.config file. I'm trying to enable HTTP 1.0 requests to be gzip. MSDN has all the info about it here. Is it possible to have this config info in my own website's web.config file? Or do i need to set it at an application level? Currently, I have that code in my web.config... ...

Hi, I'm developing an JSF web app on Tomcat, planning to use Seam in the near future, and I want to add compression of our web pages and resources (i.e. Javascript & CSS files). I'm aware of three methods to GZIP responses in a Java web : Use Ehcache GZIP filter: it's used in Appfuse, so it's probably solid and it checks if the user a...
Okay, URL Routing is great. Extensionless URLS, SEO friendly etc. However, it seems that IIS 6 doesn't perform compression on sites that use Extensionless URLs. WildCard Mapping is on so Asp.Net can process the extensionless files, but is there any way to set these resources to be gzipped? ...
