If you view the response headers of the page, you'll see something like: Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8 Content-Encoding: gzip Transfer-Encoding: chunked Cache-Control: no-cache,no-store Date: Fri, 02 Feb 2007 14:28:05 GMT The second line tells you (and the web browser) that the page is gzipped. > 2.

If you install the Web Developer extension for Firefox, there's a selection called View Document Size. Here's a sample from that output: Documents (1 file) 3 kb (17 kb uncompressed) Images (6 files) 1 kb Objects (0 files) Scripts (1 file) 1 kb (18 kb uncompressed) Style Sheets (9 files) 31 kb Total 36 kb (67 kb uncompressed) Pretty handy, yes?
