[WWW] Apache 404 handler
I notice a lot of dead links gives a horrible default error. Can we put a
more "design friendly" error handler for missing or outdated links. Also
add some Javascript to redirect back to homepage (or back page).
<script type="text/javascript">
function delayer(){
window.location = "http://www.openoffice.org"
}
</script>
...
<body onLoad="setTimeout('delayer()', 5000)">

We can do this with a custom 404 as well, and no JS needed.

JS was to automatically send you back (or send you to the homepage like the
example). Using:
history.back()

I think that page can be work upon, I don't like the borders on a table,
this could be done on a more XHTML manners using div instead of tables, and
also get rid of the table borders.
Probably a better design, and more useful information like a link to the
site and a < GoBack() link.

Yes, I found this also but haven't had time to get back to this thread.
There are some odd situations in which this doesn't work (???). So, some
investigation needed.
In any case, a link to the home page can certainly be added. Or anything
else we might find useful.

We do have a custom 404 handler, here:

Someone else mentioned this recently. I *thought* we had a custom 404 at
one time, but I could be mistaken. This is a relatively easy server side
configure, rather than JS. Any thoughts on what we would like it to say?
We could also include some fun pictures!
