Might be, but I can't find any document specifying what version of HTML
is supports. But being Apple, perhaps that is defined as "whatever
Safari supports".

ps: When referring to "Zipped" I meant the Zip file format:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZIP_(file_format)>. That both compresses
individual files and packages them up in one archive file. The
compression works fine for HTML and CSS. I assume it is smart enough not
to try and compress already compresses audio, image and video formats.
