Hi Chris,
I had just set this up yesterday, incompatible IE6 restrictive
mod_deflate config looks like:
<IfModule mod_deflate.c>
BrowserMatch ^Mozilla/4 gzip-only-text/html
BrowserMatch ^Mozilla/4\.[0678] no-gzip
BrowserMatch \bMSIE\s(7|8) !no-gzip !gzip-only-text/html
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/html text/plain text/xml
</IfModule>
Basically it adds restriction for Mozilla 4.__ (including IE6, 7, 8) but
then removes the restriction if there is MSIE 7 or 8 in the user agent
header.
Cheers,
Stig

Hi Chris,
I use Apache 1.3 with the mod_gzip module loaded on the server.
I'd like to compress all the static files like CSS and JS
Just a general heads-up - you might want to put in a rule to avoid compressing
Javascript for IE6 users. Some versions of IE6 will cache the compressed
version and forget to uncompress it.
Can't help you with the specifics of mod_gzip configuration sorry.
Kind regards,
James McGlinn
