Are you sure it doesn't set the type, and just not run it through the filter? There is a big warning on AddOutputFilterByType that it will not fire if the type is determined from DefaultType. http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/core.html#addoutputfilterbytype Cheers Tom --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
