Marc, Thank you for the quick response. The world is full of Microsoft wisdom's such as this. Just to clarify what you meant, are you saying that if my error document is "large enough" that IE will display my page instead of its own? The current response is about four lines of text. Including tags and such, it's probably about 512 characters. How large is "a certain size"?
