Default Custom 404 page help - 06-13-2012, 01:14 PM

I wanted to help clear up the advice given for a custom error page.

[Tutorial] Custom error pages

You use file manager and then select the htaccess file and on the far right "edit" - add the information in the tutorial. You must also make a php page for this to work. Make a php page named error.php and place it with your htaccess.

PHP Code:
<?php 

$status 
$_SERVER['REDIRECT_STATUS']; 
$codes = array( 
        
403 => array('403 Forbidden''The server has refused to fulfill your request.'), 
        
404 => array('404 Not Found''The document/file requested was not found.'), 
        
405 => array('405 Method Not Allowed''The method specified in the Request-Line is not allowed for the specified resource.'), 
        
408 => array('408 Request Timeout''Your browser failed to sent a request in the time allowed by the server.'), 
        
500 => array('500 Internal Server Error''The request was unsuccessful due to an unexpected condition encountered by the server.'), 
        
502 => array('502 Bad Gateway''The server received an invalid response from the upstream server while trying to fulfill the request.'), 
        
504 => array('504 Gateway Timeout''The upstream server failed to send a request in the time allowed by the server.'
        ); 
         
$title $codes[$status][0]; 
$message $codes[$status][1]; 
if (
$title == false || strlen($status) != 3) { 
    
$message 'Please supply a valid status code.'


echo 
'<p><h1>' $title '</h1></p>' .  
     
'<p>' $message '</p>';  

  
?>
The above code is put in the page by inserting it using the "page html" - start of page, between head and body - so on.
You can have some additional information on this page and it will appear with the custom error information. I got it to work this way and I like it.
