OK :( Couldn't let it rest... Found out that the above b) snippet isn't necessary, but was because I had somewhere in my apache config the following line that spoiled it: AddType application/x-gzip .gz .tgz So every file returned with .gz as extension got automatically this content type back which was incorrect
Bottom line: 1) Remove all not gzipped files otherwise apache will not perform any content negotiation and simple returns the unzipped file. 2) Add the following lines to your apache config (in a Directory/Files/ Location directive if you whish): Options +MultiViews AddEncoding x-gzip .gz And that's it... Because all the modern browsers support gzip, it's safe to remove the original unzipped files. Now I still have to find out how to gzip my remaining static resources... Thomas: how do you that ? and where you put your static resources? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Web Toolkit" group.
