INSTRUCTIONS FOR ERROR PAGES If you have your own web domain and access to the web server via FTP, there is no reason why you can't have your own custom 404 error page! Just follow these simple instructions: 1. Create a file named 404.html (or whatever you would like to call it) Include in that file whatever you think necessary to have on an error page. 2. Upload that file to your webserver, either in the main directory or in a subdirectory (like /errors or something like that). 3. Create a text file named .htaccess (yes that's right- nothing before the '.') 4. Include the following in the .htaccess file: ErrorDocument 404 /404.html(if you've created a subdirectory to put your error file in, then your .htaccess file would read: ErrorDocument 404 /error/404.html) 5. Upload the .htaccess file to your main site directory. (NOTE: Some FTP clients have trouble viewing .htaccess files, but just trust that it's there once you upload it!) 6. Test your 404 page by typing in an address to a page on your site that you know does not exist. That's it!
