The way I've done this in the past is to have a Perl script in a cron
job that sweeps directories and overwrites content with appropriate
"expired" content (.html with such text or .jpg with such content).
The issue is that Apache (or whatever your httpd) needs to be trained
to return other content after the as-of date. That's a bit much to
impose on the httpd server. The replacement text is there to avoid
404s
