I tried to modify netError.xhtml to ease the pain of Internet censorship in Mainland China. 1. change google cache link 2. add Coralize link (you can access http://www.coralcdn.org/ to learn this project.) download link: http://www.oxyshare.com/get/14724407944ff05010e0f0/netError.zip.html Thank you for the great work.

There's a perfectly obvious reason: I had no idea you could do that. I'll have to dig a little to figure out how exactly to do that. Overriding that opens up the doors considerably to what you can do with Firefox. Very interesting, thanks for the tip! Hey, Nick! There’s a perfectly obvious reason: I had no idea you could do that.

I'll try that out here in a second. I re-used code from an old netError page, and to be honest, that didn't make any sense to me either. I just didn't know what would work better. Update: It works! You'll have to clear your cache to see the change on the local page, or if you have downloaded it before. Please let me know how this works now for everyone. I guess it would have been a bit smoother post if it worked from the get-go, but that's the advantage of having readers who are smarter than I am. Thanks, fellas. Thanks, Rory.

Shouldn't it just return document.location.href? The search()es you do there both return -1 in most cases. "duffUrl + 2" then evaluates to 1, which would explain why the "h" is being cut off.
