Do most shared hosts handle gzipped files?
I get them theoretically, but I'm grappling with gzipping files in practice. How sh开发者_Go百科ould I go about gzip compressing my files, and what needs to be done in order to use them on a shared host?
Would the following work?
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Accept-Encoding} .*gzip.*
RewriteRule ^/(.*)\.js$ /$1.js.gz [L]
RewriteRule ^/(.*)\.css$ /$1.css.gz [L]
AddEncoding x-gzip text.gz
You're probably going to have trouble with the MIME type of the decompressed content still being application/gzip-compressed
rather than text/css
or text/javascript
.
What is your purpose in doing this? If you just want to cut down on network transfers, you should do that using mod_deflate
, eg.:
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/css text/javascript
and let Apache worry about compressing the transfers themselves on the fly. Otherwise browsers that can't negotiate gzip will be stuck.
I would hope a decent shared host would have already set compression for you. Use an online tool to check whether your stylesheets are being served compressed.
