Your custom 404 page doesn't show up in IE because the page
file size is too small. I don't know if you know or not?

dunno..... it's working fine here and i'm using IE. did you
perhaps enable "use own http error pages" in tools ->
options -> advanced?

Well no because you have to make things work with the most
popular browser whether you agree with their policies or
not.

Nope. I don't think it will work for a lot of people
because IE can be a complete pain when it comes to 404's. I
think it is if the file is less than 512bytes in size it may
not show.

Eff that -

If the website's pages are ok by the www consortium's
guidelines, then it's ok. If IE decides to have a problem
with it, then that's IE's problem.

They're my thoughts anyways. I'm fairly hot-headed on this
issue, especially since my bank's internet banking doesn't
work with firefox, and sometimes refuses to work with IE. If
everyone just did as the www3 says, it'd be a much better
internets :(

Not really...a lot of the progress of the internet and new
features have only been developed due to microsoft and
netscape putting custom features in...the W3 a lot of the
time just seems to be watch how popular a feature is and
then adopt it as a standard.

I'd like you to name more than one of these features.

The most used web technologies of the last few years are -

flash - developed by macromedia, html syntax invented by
W3C
CSS - pretty much 100% W3C, since the guy who invented it
(now heading up Opera) worked with W3C during its
conception
XML - W3C all the way

the WWW consortium isn't dragging its heels, it's just being
beaten over the head by microsoft who're using their market
share.

I am talking about a lot of the things prior to flash and
css. A lot of the formatting information incorporated
within the tags and the general implementation of multimedia
within browsers.

Besides XML is a subset of SGML which was developed by IBM.
TBL also based HTML on SGML before the W3C was started.

Not sure. Just add some meta data or comments or something
to the file to make it over 512bytes and I will test it for
you. If it works then it should work for all IE's

redrum: I think you've got it a bit wrong. if you want to
make pages that a large portion of the people online can't
view, it's your problem, and not anyone elses. if you
design web pages, maximum compatibility is not only wanted,
but I'd say it's required (and also very possible
while still staying within w3c standards).
