    Default Making a 404 page

    Is there a code for it? I've seen some really neat self-made 404 pages and I feel like making one of my own.

    You just make a normal webpage and get whatever server software is being used e.g. Apache to point to that page if it can't find the requested one. Not sure how to do it for a hosted web site, you might be better off contecting your hosts.

    If your hosts accepts .htaccess, enter this in Notepad:

    ErrorDocument 404 / 404.html

    Then save it as .htaccess and upload it to your main folder of your site + the 404 HTML page you created.

    Whenever someone clicks on a non-existing link, you'll get that page.

    Speaking of 404 Errors... I still have to configure mine at FFI. It won't accept htaccess, so I'll have to contact my host. XD
