Rewrite HTTP response when error code received

Hi I need to capture 500 errors and when I receive them return a preformated error page. This page will sit on a different domain (where the digital publishing team can update it quickly) and there...

You originally mentioned you don't want to use a 302 redirect for the client, but want to get the error page from somewhere your publishing team can update quickly, right? In that case, if they need a page to update on a server, the HTTP::retry would allow you to basically do a redirect that the user never sees because it's all contained in the F5.

Otherwise if you just have custom content to return to the user, I think you can use the 

HTTP::respond 200 content ""
method within HTTP_RESPONSE to send back some custom html.
