Gzip Compression - Exclude certain files?

[Bottyz]

Hey all,

 

(I'm not 100% sure this is the right place for this request, so sorry if it needs moving).

 

I want to be able to prepend and append php files with gzip compression code. However,  the problem i have is that i want to be able to exclude certain php pages from this.

 

The current code in my .htaccess is this:

 

php_value auto_prepend_file begin_gzip.php
php_value auto_append_file end_gzip.php

 

Which obviously compresses all php files. The begin_gzip.php is as follows:

 

<?php ob_start("ob_gzhandler"); ?>

 

and the end_gzip.php is:

 

<?php ob_flush(); ?>

 

The pages i want to exclude contain php download scripts which stop working with the compression enabled. So is there a way to exclude these files by name or am i going to have to add the begin/end code to each individual page i want to compress?

 

Cheers!
