 Another IE6 and GZip bug

I have been playing around with GZip-enabling domino content and found another bug. I know IE6 without service pack 2 is a total disaster. It claims it can GZip but has a tons of bugs in it so most people do not GZip for IE6 with SP1.

But it has been said that IE6 with service pack 2 should be fine to GZip. This is true for most cases but today I found one (more?) exception.

When a HTML-page is cached AND using GZip the second time the page is loaded (from cache) it has lost its content encoding. So all special characters like åäö (or others) look like crazy.

If I do "View source" they appear fine but the rendering of the web page is wrong.

Removing either caching or GZip solves the problem.

So I guess you either do not GZip the HTML-page and GZip everything else or you load your content using JSon and hope to work around it all.
