And since they cannot do anything with them either showing error messages to end users will just make them confused, which gives them a bad product experience. It is exactly the same problem with asking users if they are okay with doing the request using the method CHICKEN to this other location. They'll just go "WTF" hit "OK" and hope it works, which is not that great really. Or worse, terminate the browser and start over. -- Anne van Kesteren http://annevankesteren.nl/
