Hi everybody, I have a problem with output compression and ajax (I use prototype). My problem is that ajax creates problems to "ob_start" function because I use "echo" istruction in ajax calls.

Somebody has this problem? How can I solve it?

Bye and thanks

Nothing of special. In "config.php" I have "$compression = true", and in controller I have a function like this:

Code:
function ajax_response() {

 echo 'something';

}

Obviously when I call this function I get "ob_start" error, cause with compression it's not possible to use "echo" statement.

Thanks...=(

My question is if there is a way to turn on output compression and use ajax...

Does output compression work without your Ajax requests?

There are no inherent malfunctions between the two - it must be a misconfiguration on your server...

Yes, output compression works without ajax.

sorry for posting in this old thread but... I have the same problem
I have simple ajax, where I'm returning the values with "echo". But if I want to use "compress_output", it gives me an error. And like it's written in the comment:

Quote:Do not "echo" any values with compression enabled.

So, how to use ajax and compression?
