Hi, list, I have a large javascript file which I want to send to IE6 gziped and for IE6 to cache.
I set the following derective in the configuration file: AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/x-javascript The result is but that IE6 doesn't cache the javascript. Looking into the response headers, I found that apache is sending Transfer-Encoding: chunked together with Vary: Accept-Encoding, but without Content-Encoding: gzip I think that the missing Content-Encoding: gzip might have to do with IE6 not caching the Javascript. Does anybody have an idea about this? By the way, I have read that Content-Encoding and Transfer-Encoding are separate things, so I am expecting Apache to send Transfer-Encoding together with Content-Encoding. Why is Content-Encoding dropped? Also, the 'chunked' transfer encoding is supposed to be used for dynamically generated content. But my javascript file is a static one. When does apache decide to use 'chunked' encoding? Can I force Apache not to use 'chunked' encoding for gziped content? Best Regards, -- Hong Yuan 大管家网上建材超市 装修装潢建材一站式购物 http://www.homemaster.cn
