Re: [flexcoders] Http Compression for Flex

Yes,  I use IIS6 built in GZip compression with Flex with no problems.  
We're using Flex WebServices and HttpServices against .NET Web 
Services.  I did have to manually edit the IIS6 Metabase.xml to include 
ASMX and ASHX in the list of dynamically compressible extensions.  The 
configuration required messy several steps, I followed the walk-through at:

 for the above mime type. It does work for the initial swf file but i 
 loose the progress dialogue. Pulling my hair out trying to find a 
 solution. Any advice or help would be appreciated.
