Zlib

[Anon]

Hey,

Can you use zlib to compress page output like you can with perl ?

In perl you would load the module in the script and it would compress a page from 45Kb down to 4Kb before being sent to the browser.

Is this possible with php ?

Thanks

You can call ob_start() with the first parameter "ob_gzhandler".

Check out

for more info.
