Don't do that! –deceze Nov 19 '12 at 14:27 its an user-centric feature –Daniel A. White Nov 19 '12 at 14:27 add a comment| 2 Answers 2 active oldest votes up vote 6 down vote IE Implemented this feature because most users don't know what 404 means and it just confuses them further. Unfortunately for developers that means that useful information or a nicer implementation gets shielded from the user. Jeff Atwood has a decent writeup about 404 pages. One of his suggestions is : You have to make your customized 404 page larger than 512 bytes, otherwise IE will assume it's a standard web server 404 message and replace it with its own friendly-ized version.

should have this turned off by default. How else will you know what the problem is? So here's how to do it: Open up a new tab (CTRL+T) or window (CTRL+N). Type in de addressbar: about:config. In the filterbar type: error and press enter. Now set the value of the ‘browser.xul.error_pages.enabled‘ to ‘true‘. Double clicking will do. Restart Firefox. Now you'll get extended warnings instead of the simple warning dialogs when, for example, you accidentaly link to a non-existant domain. Or, like me, the dreaded ‘The document contains no data'. If you don't know where to find this in IE: ‘Tools' > ‘Internet Options…' > ‘Advanced'-tab > Near the end of the ‘Browsing'-section. > Uncheck.

However, I still get the friendly error messages. On another note, if I enter a URL (i.e spike), (which runs off to my localhost spike proxy), and the proxy is down, instaed it looks up on Google and sends the request to spiketv.com (or net), which is rather sad. Anyone know how to solve this one as well? Cheers,s Caspar says: August 24, 2006 at 11:26 pm This setting was only valid in the Fx1.0 days. When all you got was an alert box stating Firefox couldn't do something, instead of telling exactly what went wrong. Since 1.5 it's the other way around. Now you'll get an error page instead of a dialog box. (Setting it to false still reverts back to the dialog.) If Firefox cannot resolve the address (spike) it'll do an ‘Im feeling lucky' on Google. That's why you'll end up on ‘spiketv'. To tell Firefox to look on your localhost no matter what, you'll need to do some rerouting on your system (I assume). On Windows you'll need to alter the HOSTS-file and tell the OS ‘spike' is ‘127.0.0.1:(port)'. But look that up as it's too long a story to post here. Caspar says: August 24, 2006 at 11:45 pm On a si
