Wouldn't it make more sense for the server to return an HTTP code of
500 (and still display the error on the screen)? This way,
applications that call the ASP script and rely on seeing an HTTP error
code to know if something is wrong will not be fooled. Website status
monitoring applications are another thing that may think all is well
if they see HTTP 200 OK. I use "Debug 2" sometimes even in production
environments.

I know there are some browsers that don't display HTTP 500 code
messages sometimes, but only when they are under 512 bytes long, and
all Apache::ASP error pages would be more than that length I think.
