As far as I understand, the Accept-Encoding header is set by the *browser*.
It is also possible to override the browser headers with HttpResponse's addHeader (if the header doesn't exist) or setHeader (to overwrite the header) So you may want to try either one of: response.addHeader("Accept-Encoding","gzip"); or response.setHeader("Accept-Encoding","gzip"); Other acceptable encodings are listed in the link I pointed to earlier. -Rashmi --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
