From zlib manual : Whether to transparently compress pages. If this option is set to "On" in php.ini or the Apache configuration, pages are compressed if the browser sends an "Accept-Encoding: gzip" or "deflate" header. "Content-Encoding: gzip" (respectively "deflate") and "Vary: Accept-Encoding" headers are added to the output. It looks like in zlib.c the php_enable_output_compression function should enable the compression, which it also does (the data is sent gzipped properly if the client has a proper Accept-Encoding header sent) but nowhere in there is a header sent with Content-Encoding. The only occurence is in the ob_gzhandler but it seems like this is a totally different feature. I have set a header output in my php_enable_output_compression and it works for me, dont know if this is the proper solution. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=32283&edit=1
