I have an nginx server and can’t seem to find any information on how to send Vary: Accept-Encoding headers for CSS and JS files. Does anyone have info about this?

Thanks!

    This is from the nginx documentation.

    gzip_vary
syntax: gzip_vary on|off
default: gzip_vary off
context: http, server, location

    Enables response header of "Vary: Accept-Encoding". Note that this
    header causes IE 4-6 not to cache the content due to a bug (see 2 ).

    There if you just add gzip_vary on; it should do it’s job.

    Also make sure you have any one of the directives gzip, gzip_static, or gunzip are active.
