CVS update: php3/doc/chapters

Date: Sunday October 25, 1998 @ 16:34 Author: cschneid Update of /repository/php3/doc/chapters In directory asf:/u2/tmp/cvs-serv16428/doc/chapters Modified Files: config.sgml Log Message: Added zlib compression to output functions of Apache module. This means (currently for Apache module only) PHP supports the HTTP header line Accept-encoding: *gzip* and sends Content-encoding: gzip as well as compressing the output. Added the configuration flag compress_output [on|off] which can be set for the Apache module on a per directory basis.
