They are not telling you the truth, as can be seen by inspecting the headers: lilith:~ robin$ lwp-request -m HEAD http://pixelpalaces.com/DK/toh.svgz 200 OK Connection: close Date: Tue, 06 Dec 2005 19:25:30 GMT Accept-Ranges: bytes ETag: "1033226f79bcc41:c20" Server: Microsoft-IIS/5.0 Content-Length: 314899 Content-Type: image/svg+xml Last-Modified: Wed, 27 Oct 2004 23:05:21 GMT Client-Date: Tue, 06 Dec 2005 19:19:47 GMT Client-Peer: 216.19.71.229:80 Client-Response-Num: 1 There should be a "Content-Encoding: gzip" header in there. Note that a quick fix for you that might work would be to rename your files to .svg.gz, though you would need to test first to see if the Content- Type header is still right. If you were using Apache that fix would work, and there would be an easy way to throw in a .htaccess file to make .svgz work, but I don't know about IIS. -- Robin Berjon Senior Research Scientist Expway, http://expway.com/ ------------------------ Yahoo!
