Servlet Guru's:
For the sake of network performance I would like
to compress the html in my servlet using Java's zip
classes and then return that byte-stream back to the
browser. Though we can successfully compress the byte
stream we haven't been able to get the browser to
properly understand what to do with the data; it wants
to prompt the user to save it rather than uncompressing
it and rendering the HTML.
Any tips? We have tried 'response.setContentType("text/gzip")'
but that doesn't work.
We are fairly positive this can work because if we just
put a static gzipped file on the webserver the browser
will know what to do with it, but when we try to create the
same bytestream dynamically within a serlvet it doesn't work.
We are thinking it has something to do with the content-type
or other header information.
Any thoughts are appreciated.
-Steve
