Revisiting this problem, Richard's suggestion didn't work. This is
what I know.
Code sample.
<?php
ob_start();
include('gzip_encode.php');
?>
<?php
header("Content-type: image/svg+xml");
echo ('<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>')."\n";
?>
<!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC '-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.0//EN'
'http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG/DTD/svg10.dtd'>
<svg>
.....
</svg>
<?php
new gzip_encode();
?>
-I have to place gzip.exe and gzip_encode.php in the same directory to
compress my output.
-If they are not there, it will display, if so, IE tries to download
the file. What kills me, is that on my work computer and home desktop,
no problem.
-On my laptop and some friends computers, but not all, IE tries to
download.
-I recently reformatted my laptop.
-Appears to be a problem on computers that have not recently viewed my
site. Not sure what time frame, but computers that visited my site
say 6 months ago are fine, maybe even only 3.
-It has to do with gzip_encode.php.
-No problem running off my localhost on same laptop.

No Good:

But this is OK.
