HaHa! i found some doccumentation on exactly what i needed :
http://perl.apache.org/faq/#so%20how%20do%20i%20use%20mod_perl%20in%20conjun
ction%20with%20errordocument
which basically told me to add this bit of code at the top of my module:
$r->content_type('text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1');
$r->send_http_header;
$r->status(200);
that first sends the original status to the browser (with send_http_header)
then sets the status to 200 to make apache happy.. this works fine.
Thanks for tryin to help thou,
DJ
