As far as I remember, errordocument still send the code, in this case
404 to the client. In the case of IE, this will display IEs built-in
error doc if the server supplied one is < 512 Bytes. Maybe other
implications for spiders also. I might be wrong, but this is from some
old memory.

Why not just set:
ErrorDocument 404 /path/to/some/script.php
Then check $SERVER['REDIRECT_URL'] for the failed request.

Hey,
one of the things that make the php.net <http://php.net>
site so cool is how easy it is to find info for a function
or a list of topics.. eg:
http://php.net/arrays
http://php.net/count
I'm sure nearly all of you reading this have done it more
times than you would care to count, i'm trying to get
something like this on my own site but even after going to
php.net <http://php.net> and clicking on the view source
buttons am a bit confused.
basically this is what i am trying, people who type in
http://www.mysite.com/asdf
should not be shown a 404 not found page but instead
"asdf" should be passed onto my script where i can do a
search on the term and either give them back the results
of that search or direct them to a custom 404 page.
since i couldnt find the answer via php.net
<http://php.net>'s source i started messing around with
how i *think* its done... tell me if i am on the correct
track: when someone requests a page that does not exist, a
.htaccess file them up and also takes the page name they
were searching for and redirects them to a script...
So far i have only been able to get the .htaccess file
point to my custom 404 page... but how do i get it to pass
the parameter of the not-found-page to my script?
Would appreciate any code, tips, urls you can give me.
Thanks!

If you use .htaccess and have mod_rewrite then it is simpler.
Something like this (untested):
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?term=$1 [L]
</IfModule>
Then in index.php you can use the contents of $_GET['term'],
which in your example would be asdf.
[QSA,L] will give you the query string if the user typed in
something like http://www.mysite.com/asdf?your=mom.
Then $_GET['your'] = 'mom'.
