What I want it to send back is the normal 404 error page for the particular web browser that you are using.
The 404 Error page is not determined by a browser, it's done at the server level. You can cutomize your 404 error page to say whatever you want it to. See this page for details on how to do this with Apache.
If you want to do this in your code you'll want to do something like the following.
#!/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
sub NotFound { return '404'; }
use CGI::Pretty;
use CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser);
$CGI::Pretty::INDENT = ' ';
my $WP = new CGI::Pretty;
print $WP->header(-status => &NotFound),
$WP->h1("404 Page Not Found");

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
