If you're requesting a missing .cfm page then you'll get the ColdFusion missing template. If you're requesting a missing .htm page you'll get the IIS missing template.
I *think* what you want to do here is configure IIS and ColdFusion to point to the same (ColdFusion I assume) 404 page so that both missing .cfm and missing .htm pages are processed by the same template. -Novak ----- Original Message ----- From: "Geoffrey Brown" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Talk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, December 31, 2002 7:37 AM Subject: 404s, silly question > Hi, > I just jumped back on the list after a couple-year break.
