You are right in the sense that apache and tc4 can
compress the output(only supported formats)..
1. And if thats what we are talking about then there
is compression/decompression all over the network
starting at the server., network layers, hardwares
like modems etc..
2. I dont think so the so called "webapps" according
to the servlet model are responsible/supposed to
do..this kida job. I guess they depend on their server
environment for that.
3. And I guess the orginal auther of this question was
talking about compression utils like xmlppm. They are
hardcore zipping mechanisms..NOT one of those
server/browser supported and standard in-line
compression mechanisms..
4. And yes., you cant compress everything
together(html+images)..
so there is no point in saying that my html doc is 50
k big including images...'coz every link on the html
is treated separate request to be filled by the
browser...
