Thanks Henrik...But I have seen vice-versa to be working i.e., server sending a gzipped response and squid serving deflated one when client asks for deflated content....

Are you sure? squid does _transfer_ chunked decoding. But thats special compression only 'zipped' between the web server and Squid (and web server is broken to be trying it with Squid anyway).

...or perhapse you have a version of that gzip patch applied. It's not new.

... or maybe you hit the Vary: bug where squid always presented the deflate copy no matter what once it received the first deflate copy. :(

My squid is 2.6-16.

When my client asks for Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate, squid is sending it raw content. Shouldn't it gzip and then send?

No, Content-Encoding (just as Content-Languate) is a task of webservers,
not semantically transparent proxies such as Squid.

Is there a way in which this can be achieved?

There is an addon for squid-3, but it apparently needs a bit of work to
apply to current Squid-3 sources.
