Take care that that "PHP deflate" != "HTTP deflate". The deflate encoding used in HTTP is actually zlib encoded. This is what PHP functions return: gzencode() == gzip gzcompress() == zlib (aka. HTTP deflate) gzdeflate() == *raw* deflate encoding

denis dot noessler

if you have compressed data which is greater than 2 MB (system dependent), you will receive a buffer error by calling the function gzinflate(). be sure to to compress your data by a lower compression level, like 1. i.e.: gzdeflate($sData, 1);

@ giunta dot gaetano at sea-aeroportimilano dot it No, gzdeflate() implements rfc1951. And rf2616 (http 1.1 specs) says "deflate : The "zlib" format defined in RFC 1950 [31] in combination with the "deflate" compression mechanism described in RFC 1951 [29]."
