In this blog post I am covering new features which have been added to compression and custom errors modules in IIS 7.5.

Changes to custom errors

Clients which can accept compressed responses send Accept-Encoding header indicating compression schemes they can handle. If IIS can compress the response using a compression scheme which client can understand, IIS will send a compressed response with Content-Encoding response header indicating the scheme which was used to compress the response.

So request response look something like

REQUEST: **************
GET /static/index.htm HTTP/1.1\r\n
Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate\r\n
Host: localhost\r\n
Accept: */*\r\n
\r\n
RESPONSE: **************
HTTP/1.1 200 OK\r\n
Content-Type: text/html\r\n
Content-Encoding: gzip\r\n
