I would like to use gzip compression for serving content but exclude all
versions of IE6 and below.
I tried setting user agents in noCompressionUserAgents but so far without
success.
The documentation suggests the setting is a regular expression however a
quick review of tomcat's source code shows its using an exact string
matcher.
Please help if you can point me towards an answer or provide a simple
example. Perhaps I'm missing the obvious solution, so I apologize in
advance.
Thanks

<Connector port="8080" protocol="HTTP/1.1"
connectionTimeout="20000"
redirectPort="8443"
compression="on"
compressionMinSize="20"
noCompressionUserAgents="gozilla,traviata"
compressableMimeType="text/html,text/xml,text/css,text/javascript,
image/jpg"
// Check for incompatible Browser
if (noCompressionUserAgents != null) {
MessageBytes userAgentValueMB =
request.getMimeHeaders().getValue("user-agent");
if(userAgentValueMB != null) {
String userAgentValue = userAgentValueMB.toString();
// If one Regexp rule match, disable compression
for (int i = 0; i < noCompressionUserAgents.length; i++)
if
(noCompressionUserAgents[i].matcher(userAgentValue).matches())
return false;
