Re: Reducing size of htm output

I need to reduce the size of the HTM generated by a PHP script for faster transmission. I'm actually using ob_start("ob_gzhandler") but I also need some function to reduce the size of javascript blocks, deletion of unnecesary blanks, etc. For example, Code A: <head><script> function any(){ somecode; } </script> </head> <body> </body> can be converted to Code B: <head><script> function any(){ somecode; }</script></head><body></body>

preg_replace('/s+/', ' ', $html); but watch out, this js code will work: var v alert(v) this one will not: var v alert(v)

1) Is there any function to do this (I'm using PHP 4.2) ? Or maybe some user has already done it? 2) Is it true that ob_start("ob_gzhandler") can cause problems on IE 5.5+?

don't know. but you can detect these browsers and turn compression off
