Hi,
Have u set the http headers properly? If we don't set the headers properly
browser will throw up the dialog box saying save/open it.
Here is what I tried and what I found working on Tomcat 4.1.29, IE 6.0
Inside doGet() or doPost() -
String acceptEncodingHeaderStr = request.getHeader("Accept-Encoding");
System.out.println("acceptEncodingHeaderStr :
"+acceptEncodingHeaderStr);
boolean supportGZip = false;
if(acceptEncodingHeaderStr != null) {
if( (acceptEncodingHeaderStr.toLowerCase().indexOf("gzip")) >
-1 )
supportGZip = true;
}
if(supportGZip) {
//Sets the proper headers
response.setHeader("Content-Encoding", "gzip");
response.setHeader("Content-Type","text/html");
GZIPOutputStream gzos = new
GZIPOutputStream(response.getOutputStream());
StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer();
sb.append("This is thru zipped output stream");
gzos.write(sb.toString().getBytes());
gzos.close();
}
Thanks & Regards,
Nirmal

GZip compression on the web server using mod_gzip seemed like a suitable
solution to my problem, but unfortunately it is not usable in our
environment:
the web server is shared by multiple applications and such a configuration
modification would require the approval of all other teams (which would be
incredibly lengthy, painful, and would probably end up being rejected).
Compression definitely has to be done at a code level. Too bad we don't
have
servlet filter support... :(
Thanks,
GB
