My web hosting service said they think gzip compression is enabled. Does that mean that all my javascript files are being gzipped on the server in such a way that when they get to my browser, they are processed correctly? If so, then I don't have to do anything to reduce the size of jquery 1.2.6 min to get the benefit of smaller files to send over the net.
