View 2 RepliesI'm tring to implement what Steve Souders discusses [URL] about forcing gzip compression
I've got a module that's running this:
[code]....
CompressionUtils.GzipSupported just checks for the 'accepts-encoding' header while
CompressionUtils.GzipSupportedExplicitly and CompressionUtils.GzipNotSupportedExplicitly check for the cookie saying whether the browser really can read gzip
But when I load a page in Firefox I get this error:
Content Encoding Error
The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because it uses an invalid or unsupported form of compression.
and in Fiddler it shows that the content-encoding header has been added but the content hasn't been compressed
i have problem configuring gzip compresion in IIS 7.5, below is my configuration in applicationhost config
<httpCompression directory="%SystemDrive%inetpub empIIS Temporary Compressed Files">
<scheme name="gzip" dll="%Windir%system32inetsrvgzip.dll" />
<staticTypes>
[code]....
I am not good at IIS management.I enabled gzip compression for my web site but In IIS Temporary Compressed Files folder,i dont see any aspx type file.I just see js,text,css and some html files.Is that normal?Why dont i see aspx pages as compressed.Thats my metabase.xml and i think that my settings are true.
IIsCompressionScheme Location ="/LM/W3SVC/Filters/Compression/deflate"
HcCompressionDll="%windir%system32inetsrvgzip.dll"
HcCreateFlags="0"

Using GZIP in asp.net application...
I have tried searching on google... we put some code in global.asax and web.config.. but not working..
I have an asp.net page which has 4 grid views connecting to mysql database for data population. The average response time for a round trip to the server is 20.55 seconds. That is way too much time. I have since applied the HTTP Compression GZip to improve the speed,I don't see any improvement in load time. Ive also used pagination, but no effect.
View 3 RepliesI got gzip working, but there are issues with IE. (works fine with FF and Chrome) Message: ASP.NET Ajax client-side framework failed to load. (and many other js related errors)
How can I prevent gzip compression on ie browsers ?? Other people who had similar issues enabled compression in IIS and that seems to solve the issue, but I can't do this on my discount machine...
This is what I use:
HttpApplication app = (HttpApplication)sender;
string acceptEncoding = app.Request.Headers["Accept-Encoding"];
Stream prevUncompressedStream = app.Response.Filter;
if (acceptEncoding != null && acceptEncoding.Length != 0)

i am trying to compress video files by using gzip in asp.net.
View 1 RepliesI have referred below mentioned links and successfully implemented Gzip, by compressing aspx pages. URL....My website is ajax enabled. One of page is having gridview. While debugging gridview rowCommand fires and records are displaying in debugging mode, but same records are not displaying on web page controls.
View 1 RepliesI need to enable compression to speed up my site.However, I only found way to do it via action filter which requires me to put [compress] action filter to every actions.such as; [URL]aspxThis is quite lots of work and I may miss an aciton which is not desiable.So, is there a way to enable compression site level? I mean, by changing config or put code in request handler to support compression.Also, action fileter approach doesn't compress javascript or css.How do you support compression? Is there a way to support it?I heard that there is a way to do it via IIS, but my hosting site doesn't support this.
View 10 RepliesOn PageSpeed Insights they recommend highly doing two things:
1) Leverage browser caching
Setting an expiry date or a maximum age in the HTTP headers for static resources instructs the browser to load previously downloaded resources from local disk rather than over the network.
2) Enable compression
Compressing resources with gzip or deflate can reduce the number of bytes sent over the network.
We are with Network solutions and believe they are using IIS 6 with regular asp.net code. Some of the images are using Amazon S3/Cloudfront.
How do we implement the above items? I see a lot for IIS 7.
I have a compression module built based on several examples on the web. Initially, I hooked into the BeginRequest event of the application context to conditionally compress certain file types. This seems to have worked fine for JS and HTML, but CSS was giving me trouble. Here are the specific steps I could take to reproduce the problem consistently.
View 2 RepliesI'm getting around 50% compression using System.IO.Compression and I think it could/should be getting around 75% by setting the compression level higher. Is there a way to improve the compression level or should I be looking for a different solution?
View 2 RepliesI am asking this out of curiosity. I got the following error when this is not enabledAn attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect formatThis is related to loading a class library but this particular class library is compiled for any CPU with VS2010 64 bit running on Win7 64-bit
View 4 RepliesI have a program which I would like to publish to my company's intranet server so that employees are able to implement updates. I am not sure how to go about this but I have done some research on IIS and I was wondering if anyone could clue me in a little more with what I need to do. I have not yet downloaded IIS to give it a try as I'm not sure where I would go from there.

I have heard that if we use gzip, aspx files will be loading faster. But, I am not sure as to how to use it in my web applications. I am hosting my site with GODADDY (ASP 2, IIS 7) Can anyone tell me if I will be able to use gzip? Can you give me a sample file where gzip is used?
View 4 Repliesi implement this library in my applicationhttp://www.dominicpettifer.co.uk/Blog/17/gzip-compress-your-websites-html-css-script-in-codeit Works very well if i run the site in Visual Studio but when i compile my site and publish in IIS it only Gzip ASPX files not CSS or JS files.does anyone knows a better way for implement JavaScript and CSS Gzip in C# 2005 (changing the IIS its not an option it has to be in the code)
View 1 RepliesI am running a website using IIS6 and i wrote a simple generic handler which return smaller images when it receive image url as query string. My problem is that the server is applying gzip to some file types such as .aspx and .ashx. And that made my response image from the handler appear with lower quality because they are compressed.
How can i disable gzip for just this handler file, i hope for a solution without editing the IIS.
I'm trying to create an HTTP gzip/deflate module, but when I'm trying to get the Accept-Encoding header it returns null, I tried in IE8, FF, Chrome and Opera.
View 2 RepliesMy pages are automatically being compressed by IIS7 with GZIP. but, for one particular page, I need to stream it to the user, using Response.Flush() when needed. But when the output is being compressed, the IIS server seems to collect all my output until the page is done before compressing and sending it to the client. That nullifies my attempt to Flush the content out to the user.
Is there a way that I can have this one page opt out of the compression?
One possible option
I've determined that if I manually set the content type to one that does not match the IIS configuration at c:windowssystem32inetsrvconfigapplicationhost.config, then IIS will not compress it. Eg. Response.ContentType = "x-text/html". This works okay with IE8, as it falls back to display the HTML. But Firefox will ask the user what to do with the unknown file type.
This could work, if there was another Mime Type I could use that browsers would accept as HTML, that is not matched in the applicationhost.config. For reference, these are the mime types that will be compressed:

Others options?
Are there other options to opt out of compression?
Project: Asp.net 2, MSVS VB.net
Hoster: Windows, Shared environment
I ran firebug (via Firefox) with googles speed test, and I got two major issues come back to me, and I sent two questions to my hoster.
1) MY QUESTION TO THE HOSTER1: Css, Js image files loaded to browser and cache from my hoster go up the request process with out the lastmodified data, and thus the browser cache does not know when to refresh the files on expiration date?
MY HOSTER RESPONSE: LastModified is a script that can be implemented to your java coding (ME: I think hes confused here, I dont use java) which you need to enter yourself. It is not a server function that we can modify on our side but it is something that you will have to change your website coding.
2) MY QUESTION TO THE HOSTER2: Firebug results said that GZIP is not activated for my files of CSS, js and asp.net pages, why not?
MY HOSTER RESPONSE: Currently, you are using Windows environment hosting services which does not support gzip. gzip is available on our Linux environment hosting plans as gzip is mainly for Linux OS.
After falling off my chair, I have to ask, what can I do via coding on my asp.net2 vb.net project? I thought these two issues were purely server related and nothing to do with code with the project? What do I do, or is my hoster wrong ?
I have an ASP.NET web application and I'm thinking about the following: before sending any HTML or CSS content to users, I wish to 'compress' them, then cache the result and send that to the clients.I know it is possible to compress these by removing whitespaces, comments and stuff like that, but I'm not really familiar with more advanced solutions for this.
Apart from this, what compression methods are there and what are the advantages of each of them?Does some browsers or the HTTP protocol itself support any kind of compression?
EDIT: I'm interested in doing this to dynamically-generated HTML, too.
I had an interview Thursday and one questions that I was asked in the technical interview was a little confusing.
First, he asked me about Viewstate and I explained to him what all that entailed.
He then asked me what happens if the data you are putting into the Viewstate gets to big.
I told him you could then use Sessions or start storing things in the Database.
He said, what about Data Compression? I immediately responded by saying, yes you can use Serialization/Deserialization to store/retrieve the data (i'm using that in my open source project).
When he says "Data Compression", is he talking about "Serialization" or is this something different?
