Hello,

I'm new to nginx but I already like it after just an hour of trying/configuring. I'm using nginx 0.5.32 as a load-balancer in front of some mongrel clusters (rails). I use this bit for gzip-compression:

gzip on; gzip_http_version 1.0; gzip_min_length 1100; gzip_comp_level 2; gzip_proxied any; gzip_types text/plain text/html text/css text/xml application/x-javascript application/pdf application/xml application/xml+rss text/javascript;

I also use "$gzip_ratio" in my logging-format.

I noticed gzipping works perfectly when firefox connects, but when IE6/7 connects to nginx, this field always shows "-".

Is there any known issue with gzip and IE ?

Many thanks, Mathijs
