Output buffering with ob_gzhandler and excluding certain filetypes

[Crusader]

Apache/php4

I have output_buffering set to on (ob_gzhandler) in my php.ini and I'd like to know how to get it to exclude .js/.zip/.pdf files when compressing things.

Does anyone know of a way?

I also have root access so I can change php.ini, httpd.conf, or anything else.

Thanks.

you could always set it to off in php.ini (or in a .htaccess file)and when you do plan on using it use ini_set to turn it on in the script.

Does output_buffering work through ini_set? I remember I once tried to use it to turn it off in a script but to no avail.

I ask this because I would have to add it to a lot of files just to test it (lol).

No sorry just double checked output_buffering can only be set in the following:-

php.ini
.htaccess
httpd.conf

You could have your scripts that require it turned off in a seperate folder and use a .htaccess

Thanks, I used an .htaccess and set the handler to null and the buffer to Off.
