Hello all... I have run into a problem with Netscape 4.x and some earlier versions of IE... The following is the server info being generated by me telnet www1 8050 Trying 208............ Connected to www1....... Escape character is '^]'. GET /...... HTTP/1.0 Accept-Encoding: gzip HTTP/1.1 200 OK Date: 2000年9月07日 03:09:40 GMT Server: Apache/1.3.12 (Unix) PHP/4.0.2 mod_ssl/2.6.4 OpenSSL/0.9.5a X-Powered-By: PHP/4.0.2 Expires: 2000年9月08日 03:09:43 GMT Content-Encoding: gzip Connection: close Content-Type: application/x-javascript When I use Netscape to retrieve this same file, I get errors about unrecognized characters in javascript... it isnt decoding the gzip and the js interpreter is decoding binary. However, if I remove the Content-Type: application/x-javascript header, netscape does decode the gzip and display the file. In order for me to use this as a SRCed js file I NEED the Content-Type: application/x-javascript header. Is there a header that is missing?? Does anyone know a workaround?? Essentially, i need to be able to send a gzip encoded javascript file and have it interpretted.. This does work fine with IE 5. Is it just another example of NS 4 blatant disregard for standards?? Or am I reading the standard wrong and encodings of types other than html are not allowed? Thank you Joe ******************************************************************* FYI....
