Of you will find that all you need to do is add a line similar to the following to your .htaccess file:

AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/html text/plain text/css text/xml application/x-javascript text/javascript application/javascript
Source: StackOverflow

However, if you’re on a GoDaddy shared hosting account you may have realised that this doesn’t work. GoDaddy’s help page recommends that you paste this code in all your PHP pages:

<?php if (substr_count($_SERVER['HTTP_ACCEPT_ENCODING'], 'gzip')) ob_start("ob_gzhandler"); else ob_start(); ?>

That’s fine, but from my understanding this will not cache your CSS or JavaScript. However, I found a solution here, which involves some .htaccess trickery to compress all your CSS and JavaScript files automatically. Enjoy!

Specifically, I am talking about converting something like ' to ‘ or & to & directly in Javscript.
This function does exactly that! Note how it adds a function to the prototype for String, so is called in the following way:

"Hello José".unescapeHtml()

My idea is a simple site which aggregates a bunch of feed URLs, picks the most popular keywords among them all and them displays them in a cloud. Also, user interaction alters the scoring so that things keep updating themselves as people use the site.

Anyway I know it’s not much, but having this link here might help it’s ranking ever so slightly.. plus if you randomly stumble across this page, please do click so I can register some website hits

Anyway turns out to be the result of some modest PHP pcre regex defaults. Thankfully all it took was changing a few setting in PHP.ini. A bit thanks to the following blog post, which turned a nightmare of a bug to find into a quick and easy fix.

Anyway, I tried following the upload instructions on Windows through Aptana RadRails, and had nothing but problems.. mostly I blame RadRails, it’s letting me down more and more.

But I finally did find this great guide, which goes about things through Cygwin. I still use RadRails for development, then just run a few shell commands in Cygwin to get it uploaded. Anyway the link is below, and deserves major “props”.

Enjoy!

Can anyone else confirm this?

I couldn’t find the CSS for this anywhere, so here’s what I’m using.
Note: you will probably also want this image.
