-->Overview
The <add>
element of the <dynamicTypes>
element adds a unique MIME type to the list of types that IIS 7 will compress dynamically.
Note
Unlike the IIS 6.0 HcScriptFileExtensions metabase property that defined specific file name extensions as 'dynamic content,' IIS 7 uses the <dynamicTypes>
element to specify which MIME types IIS 7 will compress dynamically, and it uses mappings in the <handlers>
element to specify which file name extensions refer to static or dynamic content.
Compatibility
Version | Notes |
---|---|
IIS 10.0 | The <add> element was not modified in IIS 10.0. |
IIS 8.5 | The <add> element was not modified in IIS 8.5. |
IIS 8.0 | The <add> element was not modified in IIS 8.0. |
IIS 7.5 | The <add> element was not modified in IIS 7.5. |
IIS 7.0 | The <add> element of the <dynamicTypes> element was introduced in IIS 7.0. |
IIS 6.0 | The <dynamicTypes> element is somewhat analogous to the IIS 6.0 HcScriptFileExtensions metabase property. |
