Try enabling gzip compression in the <Connector>. http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/config/http.html#Standard%20Implementation Look for the "compression" attribute. You'll probably have to change the compressablemimeType setting from the default to include text/css. I don't think there's a way to trick Tomcat into using a pre-compressed image of a file in this way. Alternatively, you could probably do something like the following: create a servlet that does nothing but serve a file off the disk (you might even extend the DefaultServlet). Make sure that your servlet reads your gzip'd CSS file and serves it without modification, except to add a "Content-Encoding" header. Remember to ensure that the client has "Accept-Encoding: gzip" set in the request headers... otherwise you will be serving a file that the browser claims it can't read. Good luck, - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkowG2MACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PC98ACgnQZ2/PKp5QgYsQJkTgPYGVep vKgAniqftK7UQndCyoax6Fb+pR3C+vwl =irZW -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
