As per the apache docs <Location> sections are not file system paths.. http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/core.html#location Specifically this part in the docs. "When to use <Location> Use <Location> to apply directives to content that lives outside the filesystem. For content that lives in the filesystem, use <Directory> and <Files>. An exception is <Location />, which is an easy way to apply a configuration to the entire server.

A location directive referes to part of the url in broswer, and unless I have had a few more beers than I thought.

Could you provide more information on your apache configuration please? E.g modules loaded.. Is mod_mime loaded? Is mod_deflate loaded? What version of apache are you using? All of these help the diagnosis. If you could tar/gzip/zip and email me the configs im happy to have a look and see if I can spot anything wrong. >> If anybody has done this please let me know if I need to do any thing >> more or if m I doing any thing wrong here. > >I'm pretty sure the Deflate you have needs capitalising also. > >SetOutputFilter DEFLATE > >Also, AddOutputFilterByType is deprecated in Apache 2.1. > >Try just AddOutputFilter instead if it will serve your needs. > >Apache Docs are your friend : >http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/core.html#addoutputfilterbytype Docs sure are your friend. >Best not ask any more Apache questions here I would have thought. If this is regarded as too much of a an off topic topic, reply off list if you wish. This is my first day back on this list after a few years away, so im not sure how off topic, topics can get. -- Paul De Audney [EMAIL PROTECTED] Linux Systems Administrator If you need advice or a contractor shoot me an email. ******************************************************************* List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] *******************************************************************
