Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=36663&edit=1 ID: 36663 Updated by: mike@php.net Reported by: atom at smasher dot org Summary: unexpected difference between "zlib.output_compression" and "ob_gzhandler" -Status: Verified +Status: Feedback Type: Bug Package: Output Control Operating System: FreeBSD PHP Version: 4.4.2 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Please try using this snapshot: http://snaps.php.net/php5.4-latest.tar.gz For Windows: http://windows.php.net/snapshots/ Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-03-18 18:42:42] kalle@php.net Re-classified for it to be confirmed behavoir, please change back to a documentation issue and as "To be documented" if this indeed is expected behavoir. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-11-23 13:34:05] vrana@php.net I can confirm the behavior but could not find any place in the sources which explains it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-03-09 16:46:57] atom at smasher dot org If nothing else, this would at least be a documentation bug. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-03-09 09:15:26] atom at smasher dot org Description: ------------ if php.ini has: output_handler = ob_gzhandler dynamically generated JPGs are output with gzip (Content-Encoding: gzip). if php.ini has (instead): zlib.output_compression = on dynamically generated JPGs are output without gzip. In both cases the HTTP request includes "Accept-Encoding: gzip". It does seem stupid to attempt to compress a compressed image file, but I can't find any documentation that explains which way is the "right" way to do it, or how to override the default behavior. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=36663&edit=1
