I've got a program I've written that outputs a report in html format. This report can get very large (20-30Mb), and this tool can be run hundreds of times.
To reduce disk usage, I'd like to compress the report, but have it still readable by a browser. I know most modern browsers can accept compressed html from a web server - is there any way to make then accept it from a disk file?
This isn't a bad idea - but I also will have to send these reports to customers via email, preferably without making their life complicated by having them extract a zip file or similar. I was hoping there was a way of having a "compressed html" file that browsers would just read. – xorsyst – 2011-03-07T09:27:23.340
@xorsyst - you should have included that information in the question. – ChrisF – 2011-03-07T09:31:27.107
