HTTP dynamic compression for ISAPI in IIS 6.0

I am trying to get page compression to work with IIS 6.0 and the BEA Weblogic
ISAPI plug-in. I have had the same configuration working with IIS 4.0 and
IIS 5.0. The trick was to add the file extensions "jsp" and "wlforward" to
the dynamic list in the metabase. With IIS 6.0 I am able to get static files
to compress and I can get dynamic compression to work for "asp" files so I
know it is configured and turned on. What I can't do is to get it to work
with "jsp" extensions.

Is there a change in the way that the compression module in IIS 6.0
interacts with ISAPI plug-ins?

Thanks for help,
Bollo

The configuration of Dynamic Compression on IIS6 is the same as
IIS4/5.

However, I do not know if WebLogic's ISAPI works in a way that evades
IIS Compression attempts. It all depends on its configuration and your
configuration, and none of it has been disclosed.
