I have a very simple .htaccess file set up to redirect a 404 to a php script:

ErrorDocument 404 /404.php

This works as expected in Safari, but does not work in Google Chrome (on a Mac or a PC).

I have also put a 404.htm file to see if the php script was the problem, but had the same results.

Why would Chrome have a different experience over Safari for this? I expected the .htaccess file to be a server-side redirect, so there shouldn’t be any browser issues.

(All cache was cleared on all browsers before testing as well)
