I tried this. What I got in the browser was a neatly laid out page
showing the error in Tomcat's description format. What I am not sure
is if Tomcat also returns 404 in the http response, and the error
description is part of the HTTP's 404 code. For example, when I give
the url: http://www.stanford.edu/se.html, the page I get is, I think,
IE's local page, and not the one sent by stanford's webserver.
So what I want to know, in addition to sending out "I ate your page"
html, does the webserver also send out 404 in the HTTP response?
The reason I am asking is becoz I working in the context of automated
clients, which only understands HTTP's response but not interpret text.
Thanks in advance,
