Most hosts that I have used require you to set the 404 page you want to see in the control panel of your hosting account.

Just a side note. .htaccess operates on the server-side of things. If it works in one browser it is guaranteed that it will work in other browsers as well. Browsers only display the result of what the server is throwing at them. That is some other browser issue you are experiencing.

You mentioned using .htaccess directives, do you mind copy and pasting what you are doing? I might be able to help you with this.

The only exception to that might be if .htaccess is giving a certain command that is nonstandard (or just ignored by some browsers). For example, if there is a redirect, some browsers might do it and others might not. This will be very rare, especially if your code is in a standard format.
