Added:

to the top of my header.php file.

It worked but prevented All In One SEO Pack from functioning.

Removed it and everything went back to normal.

Please let me knowby email if you can throw any light on this.

Thank you very much.

Keith,

I’m not really sure. I haven’t had any complaints from IE6 users on my “compressed” sites, so I’m inclined to say no.

If you hear anything, let me know.

Hi Scott
Interesting… does the compression cause any problems in IE6 browsers?
I’ve been told that gzip compression can cause problems. What about zlib?

Damn! I just typed a whole long comment and then the screen went funny when I hit the submit button. Is it in moderation or do i have to type it all out again?

Hi Scott,

I linked to your post: http://bradblogging.com/tutorials/speed-wordpress-up-3-times-as-fast-under-a-minute/

Surprised that it didn’t appear as a trackback.

@Stefan: You’re absolutely right. I should have separated them out like they are now. Thanks for your input.

@Gyorgy: I’ll give that a shot.

mod_deflate is faster in my opinion…

Sorry, but using both zlib.output_compression and ob_gzhandler() is nonsense. You can only use one of the two methods as they’ll interfere with each other. Using zlib.output_compression where available is preferred over ob_gzhandler(). Please see http://de3.php.net/manual/en/zlib.configuration.php#ini.zlib.output-compression and http://de3.php.net/ob_gzhandler.
