HTTPS compression

I got Gzip compression to work on HTTP, but should it also work on HTTPS?
and if so how do you get it to work? Thanks!

Re: HTTPS compression

multiple tools... I have done everything from using FireFox's developer
toolbar to read the content headers looking for gzip compression to fiddler
to read the headers to looking at ISA Server's traffic monitor and looking
at the filter data and seeing it it shows compression or not

Re: HTTPS compression

What IIS version?

Are you saying that you observed:
1. The request over HTTPS has the "Accept-Encoding: gzip" header
2. The file extension of the requested URL is configured for either
static or dynamic compression
3. The response does NOT have the "Content-Encoding: gzip" header

#1 and #3 are observed at the Server, not client, and #2 is proven
server-side configuration.
