Re: [users@httpd] .htaccess

Hi Dayne
Create a file called .htaccess (not the leading dot) and put it in the directory that your customer 404 should apply to.

In the file, put:
      ErrorDocument 404 /path/to/error404.html
Note that the path to the error file has a slash at the beginning
You could also use
      ErrorDocument 404 /error404.html

Note also that this error404.html should NOT have any protection on it!

Make sure that your ISP or sys admin has allowed you to use custom .htaccess docs.

  I'm trying to make custom 404 pages by making a .htaccess file.  I reviewed the documentation on .htaccess files on apache.org but now I'm even more confused than before.  Can someone try to explain it PLEASE!?!?
