Hello all,

I’m having some issues with page caching in our app. We’re on 2.1.0  
and using standard page caching.

We seem to be getting a weird problem where the page will get cached  
(as .html a file) but the contents will be completely garbled text.  
Please see [http://koopd.com/example.html](http://koopd.com/example.html) for an example. (View the  
source).

Anyone have any ideas on this?

Thanks

Found the problem. We were using the output\_compression plugin (http://  
[agilewebdevelopment.com/plugins/better\_output\_compression](http://agilewebdevelopment.com/plugins/better_output_compression)) which  
obviously has some conflicts with page caching.
