title: Disable Gzip compression for single php file with IIS
body: <p>I have a configuration that doesn't seem too common on the Internets (PHP with IIS), and so far I have not been able to find a solution for my problem because of this. </p>
  
  <p>Basically when I'm sending a manual 404 header on my php page:</p>
  
  <pre><code>header('HTTP/1.0 404 Not Found');
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The problem is that I then always get encoding errors, which I've determined has something to do with gzip being enabled.  </p>
  
  <p>When I curl with --compressed I get:</p>
  
  <pre><code>HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found
  Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0
  Pragma: no-cache
  Content-Length: 3560
  Content-Type: text/html
  Content-Encoding: gzip
  Expires: Thu, 19 Nov 1981 08:52:00 GMT
  Vary: Accept-Encoding
  Server: Microsoft-IIS/6.0
  Set-Cookie: PHPSESSID=b0ueqhtc3o4p7m2luqss170fr3; path=/
  Date: Mon, 11 Jul 2011 16:15:40 GMT
  
  curl: (61) Error while processing content unencoding: invalid code lengths set
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Is it possible to disable compression just for this one page?  Or is there some other solution for this that I'm missing?  I don't want to disable compression for the entire site.</p>
