#19828 [Opn->Bgs]: zlib-compression (gzip encoding) don't work with any browser

ID: 19828 Updated by: iliaa@php.net Reported By: paolo@ir3ip.net -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Bug Type: Zlib Related Operating System: linux 2.2.19 PHP Version: 4.2.3 New Comment: This works fine in IE 6.0, Mozilla, Konqueror and Opera I imagine it works in other browsers as well since the order of headers in this particular case does not make a difference. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-10-09 03:49:53] paolo@ir3ip.net Hi all. I've stated that zlib-compression feature is not correctly implemented, because the HTML header must be something like this: ..... Content-type: text/html Content-encoding: gzip Now, php zlib-compression feature don't work with IE, Konqueror, and probably other few browsers, because it send "Content-encoding: gzip" BEFORE "Content-type: mimetype". Bytheway, the zlib compression is a good enhancement for those who are not using mod_gzip module. Ok, good luck.
