I ran across "class.gzip_encode.php" whuch is a php class to gzip encode served content to reduce size. It loads your pages faster, reduces server load and makes for a better browsing experience for dial-up users.
This is probably something I will never use, but when I find things like this I like to post them here. I am sure someone will find a use for it.
Get the class file from Leknor.com.

Actually, you don't even need that class. You just need to place this at the top of each php file you want served gzipped: <?php ob_start("ob_gzhandler"); ?>

Hi! I am trying desperately how to turn off mod_gzip in my .htacess file. My webhost refuses to turn it off for me on his end and one of my syndication sites is receiving a parsing error because of this.
I know this article is about enabling but can anyone disable? Thanks!
