ID: 10070 Comment by: download-uniform1066 at hotmail dot com Reported By: mnot at akamai dot com Status: Closed Bug Type: Zlib Related PHP Version: 4.0 Latest CVS (29/03/2001) New Comment: <a href=http://u-pink-uniform-gang.da.ru>download uniform</a> Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-04-30 15:52:26] jmoore@php.net This should have been resolved with various patches that have been added recently, please test with latest CVS and reopen if this is not the case. (Although once again can we really write workarounds for every browser that breaks the standards?) - James ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-04-02 00:53:35] mnot at akamai dot com IIRC, it advertises both, so it shouldn't be an issue. I don't have a windows box around to make sure with... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-03-30 19:45:38] avsm@php.net Just to clarify a bit more, and see if a workaround is worthwhile: Currently, if both gzip and deflate are present in the Accept-Encoding, we will prefer the gzip. The only good reason for a workaround in the code is if a widespread browser presents deflate only, and then proceeds to break. Do these broken versions of IE present Accept-Encoding: deflate _only_ ? And which versions are they? Anil ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-03-30 14:59:49] sniper@php.net If a browser breaks RFCs -> not our problem. Closed. --Jani ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-03-30 13:07:42] avsm@php.net Applied a patch to add Vary: headers if we add a Content-Encoding: header. Regarding the browser compatibility with Deflate, I think we should just leave it like it is. _They_ break the RFC; encourage people to upgrade to modern, non-broken browsers instead ? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
