I just stumbled across this thread and I must say that it had never occurred
to me that you could zip html and have it unzipped at the client - should
read a few more RFCs eh!
Anyway, as excited as a small boy in a big room full of sweets I knocked up
a quick tag. Everyone please feel free to use/ignore/modify/etc.

Thanks for the reminder on that one! I was going to do that... I
even had RFC 2616 on my desk to look up how to do that, and I
completely forgot...
I've actually got some "real work" to do today (darn clients....
always interrupting my fun!), but once I get that taken care of, I'll
integrate the various suggestions on this & see if I can turn it into
a real tag....
Thanks again to everyone for the tips & pointers!
Best regards,
Zac Bedell
