We have released today a cool module that will do HTML compression for your ColdBox and ContentBox applications.  This module is based off the HTML Compressor and Minifier project (http://code.google.com/p/htmlcompressor/).  This module will compress your HTML with certain compiler rules, compress your inline CSS and even your inline JavaScript.  It can also keep track of compressed HTML in any CacheBox provider for you, so compression is done efficiently.  So if you are looking to optimize your applications even more, then check out our HTML Compressor.  If you are using ContentBox, you can just go to the Modules tab > ForgeBox.  Then click install and watch it download and install it for you in your ContentBox system.

We have already seen tremendous bandwith benefits already by using this module, so what are you waiting for!
