Firefox/Projects/Network Error Pages

646 bytes added, 22:20, 1 July 2009
Design Decisions: +moar
**Currently, IE and Chrome override 404 pages, while Safari, Opera, and Firefox do not. While there's no way (?) to automatically check if a 404 page is the default Apache one, IE and Chrome place a limit of bytes and direct to their branded 404 pages if the result is less than that.
*More information about the error and suggestions should be provided to users, but on a link off of the network error page rather than written on it directly.
**Even beginning users do not need to see this information every time there is a network warning. They may want to read this information the first few times, or refer back to it later, but it's unlikely to be very helpful most times the user accesses this page.**Expert users will need this information rarely or never at all, while tools have a better chance of being useful**Removing suggestions and information from the error warning makes it easier for the user to see and access tools, which are more useful more often**This follows previous conventions; on all major operating systems, error warnings provide a link to more information.
