    Wouldn’t it be nice if, for example, when connection to the DB is broken (that is often uncontrollable by us developers) - the customer sees a not-so-scary error page with contact info? Or even better - if the document is cached and there’s no DB connection - to show that cached doc?

    I know we are responsible for most parser errors and we fix them befor publishing the site. But DB connection blackouts - they are not our direct fault smiley and they are so unexpectable. Please consider a different treatment of such DB errors at least.

    Thanks

      Thats a great idea

      maybe even use a error template document that is made and cashed on first run with place holders for the actual error. that would be nice.
