[Zope] standard_error_message weirdness

Wed Aug 20 14:51:20 EDT 2003

trying to customize my standard_error_message - Zope 2.6.1 on win32 (win2k
server) IE 6 client.

if I use the simplest possible dtml-method:

MyError

I get a zope internal site error:

...traceback
NotFound: MyError
...

so it seems it wants a complete HTML doc.

so I change the standard_error_message to:

<HTML><HEAD><TITLE>Simplest HTML Error Page</TITLE></HEAD>
<BODY>
MyError.
</BODY>
</HTML>

But the wierd thing is it gets displyed once or twice, and then the IE
internal error page takes over (404, 500 mostly)...

I'm pulling my hair out here - any advice appreciated.
