Handling gzip stream client side

ncostantini

Hi there,

I'm using a datable with server side paging. Actually the API returns a gzip json. Is there a way to enable the deflate clientside ?
Thanks in advance

This is done by browser and server-side. Check if Your browser is supporting deflate - see headers of Your request, if You'll see something like this Accept-Encoding:gzip,deflate,sdch in request then problem is Your server-side.
What language are You using on server?

As in HTTP gzip, or at level 7 it is actually gzip data that the the Ajax handler will see? What would be the benefit of doing that over using http gzip?

If that is the case, you will need a Javascript gzip library to decompress it, which you might be able to find one through Google, but it does see a little redundant (to my mind!).
