Adding additional documentation for compressResources*:

com.icesoft.faces.compressResources

There are however, resources that won't benefit from this compression. By default, ICEfaces applies a list of mime-types to exclude from being compressed. This list is:

application/java-archive
application/pdf
application/x-compress
application/x-gzip
application/zip
audio/x-mpeg
image/gif
image/jpeg
image/png
image/tiff
video/mp4
video/mpeg
video/x-sgi-movie

If you wish to override this list and provide your own mime-types to be excluded from compression, use the com.icesoft.faces.compressResourcesExclusions parameter.

com.icesoft.faces.compressResourcesExclusions

Some browsers can have difficulty with compression (notably IE 6) so ICEfaces excludes a number of certain mime-types. Compression can also be redundant for resources that are already compressed. The compressResourcesExclusions parameter takes a space delimited list of mime types for which compression will not be applied. For example:

<context-param>
<param-name>com.icesoft.faces.compressResourcesExclusions</param-name>
<param-value>image/gif image/png</param-value>
</context-param>

Please note that if you use this parameter, you are overriding the default list of mime-types that ICEfaces excludes by default. If you want to add a new mime-type to the list, then you'll need to include the entire list in addition to the additional mime-type you want to exclude.

Added updates for compressResources and compressResourcesExclusions to the Release Notes for 1.7.2.

The rest are either for 1.8 now or shouldn't be published (OpenAjax).

Retargeting for 1.8 to be included in the official doc guide updates.

Docs for updated config. params.

Note that the "noCompress" param was replaced by the compressResourceExclusions param and no longer needs to be documented.
