Update to the 404 problem
November 7th, 2008
Between support calls and various other projects and fires for the day, I have come close to what I feel is going to be a very useful 404 page. Borrowing the right wording from Xavier and a similar layout - it just feels elegant. It will do until the Web Advisory Committee has a chance to review it.

I am very happy with the look and functionality of the page. One issue remains with the page, and this may be just when it is being called through an .htaccess file:
ErrorDocument 404 /404.php
Oh, the plans I have for this page. Oh, the plans.
Interestingly, the above code works very well. But the below code doesn’t. And I am sure there is a good reason though it escapes me at this time.
