404 Error Website Page

[fab]

I recently set up a 404.shtml chmod 646 web page to catch 404 not found web pages. The strange thing is that it works with browsers aside from Microsoft Explorer. Does anyone have an explanation, or way with dealing with this.

In this situation, I believe the page needs to be over 11k to be displayed by IE. Try padding it out.

Thanks for the advice. Is there any logical reason for this, i.e, does IE not show any pages with less than 11k, since they are usually blank.

Don't know why, but I remember having the issue once and that was the answer I found on google.

Thanks. I just fixed up my pages and your suggestion works. It's funny that with the other browsers it doesn't have this problem.

If you dont want to add extra content to the page, Just add something like

<!--Random text here-->
<!--Random text here-->

Thats how i got past it, Also put a Get firefox link on
