Well, I only use Apache to test stuff, I have no idea how it works and
the entries in httpd.conf are copies of other entries that seem to
work. That's basically why I ask...

How do I specifically use "AddHandler"?
Do you have a working example?

I never said that would work for gz files, it is a *copy* of the
settings I use for another test site where SSI is used and shtml files
are the majority of the files...
Again, I don't know how Apache works, I just copied the settings from
one directory to enable a test site from another directory.
I tried to find some info on AddOutputFilter but the docs only state
that one can use these to process the data before they are sent to the
client (which is what I want) but I could not find any *list* of valid
filters...
Here
(http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_mime.html#addoutputfilter) I
found this:
<quote>
For example, the following configuration will process all .shtml files
for server-side includes and will then compress the output using
mod_deflate.
AddOutputFilter INCLUDES;DEFLATE shtml
</quote>
If I wanted to "filter" xml files so they are compressed using gzip,
how should the filter then be set up???

After reading some other posts I have this in my conf (still not
working though):
<Directory "C:/Engineering/Projects/XMLTV/XMLTVTestsite">
Options Indexes MultiViews Includes
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
AddEncoding x-gzip .gz
AddType text/xml .xml.gz
AddType text/html .shtml
</Directory>
