Common problems
If you are still seeing the HostGator error pages, try refreshing your browser (ctrl + F5). If you still see the HostGator pages, please add this code to your .htaccess file in the public_html directory.
[code]
ErrorDocument 403 /403.shtml
ErrorDocument 404 /404.shtml
ErrorDocument 500 /500.shtml
[/code]
You can even use existing pages as the resulting page. Say you don't want any visitors seeing 404 errors on your site. You can make your home page the result, like so:
[code]
ErrorDocument 404 /index.html
[/code]

If Internet Explorer is not displaying the custom error page, it is likely because the error page must be larger than 1 kilobyte.

There are many error pages which may be defined.
