It could act just like the DefaultServlet's behavior: 1. Did the client say it could Accept-Encoding: gzip? 2. Does the file [translated-path].gz exist? 3. Then send those bytes with Content-Encoding: gzip and Content-Length: size(file.gz) It seems like that should be a no-brainer in terms of functionality. Using MultiViews and re-naming your files to bizarre filenames, etc. is a big hack that I finally decided wasn't worth it. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJU/vszAAoJEBzwKT+lPKRYEXIQAKLx1pbCojQ9kcAeCp/ChLOd x0B9AB7vPJBnB7+BkQV9n+0ZDm8xSw1BqnIWkNFGlCm/5ysz1YTxi358o7ksIqXS stJXzrnF03f9v2M8tkm5A0Tmb9zO5lPbfgcCnv2qjtYstVB4NyMtowo7sGtUGpVW uYKRWiRBbjwK/np7esoi5waosPepMttPx1E6dVKqSOrru805qs8FzO+uEjlTfLOt vClfbZm9bkpyNUiEaj1P/oc10vjzKMXAPL1aqu5RMJz8sxvZugT/nLIpUTFbBHLY XJW+aaKzrV5mlb8OK3NvQTTFEZO+KhL1lqTrWVtiQUx9jIDed3fuzBhy8PggIIu7 IoD7nCL3sPASxm+Hf2cf2I64vEXZQg85sxZh8rEZTmruqqmGSx3EauDzReU7AVOW C2PNRexath9p5Pv1d3gAMjapybx4xPNtbaA2ThSENurzsba2c4jdJXD7lMWmGaIf lmBbmCaAIn2C0UWkPBAQKOSAKmE6jmpCkqwmhP7WhjALfOSUDVXJTRA7nZ0ZkMh1 UuypvPvqDDcyLKKnrSaQiyYQ09r92Ru393YqVtaaQRkNX3hKwciLYfd1saJnyo9b x7z6xIgvNf/tGOWye/QW68rn3ahpmArizYNeSz/FxWZxXuuFuwJoyGhErrOAADdR z2OK5VlnKZWPTbWUOqlV =4c4D -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
