The keys parts though is that the client sends (in header
Accept-Encoding) either gzip and/or deflate. Note that deflate is
rarely used, I guess...it's really gzip that is key, but most of the
headers I have seen include both. If the content is compressed, the
server should repond with "Content-Encoding: gzip". The
"Content-Length" should be the length of the compressed data.

HTH, --brett

IIRC, deflate is essentially gzip minus some headers and would be better, but is rarely used because various versions of IE have completely broken implementations of it.
