what types of error that you are talking about?

[mcdanielnc89]

like 400, 401, 403, 404, 500

[mcdanielnc89]

like if you would go to http://newbreedjesusfreaks.com/live ... it should show the 404 error but only shows my layout.. LOOOOOL. I've never delt with this so i dunno.. LOOOOL

Try this: "HTML Custom Error Message"

Its simple. Just follow the steps.

1. Open notepad and copy this "ErrorDocument 404 /custom_404.html"

2. Save the file in name ".htaccess"

3. Upload the file to your server root directory where you have your web page files.

4.Change the permission of the ".htaccess" file to 777.

Thats it. Now you have 404 error page customized.

Note: Don't forget to upload "custom_404.html" to your server.

Omword...

This is what the custom page shows.. I put my layout into the custom error page...

Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator, webmaster@newbreedjesusfreaks.com and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.
More information about this error may be available in the server error log.
Additionally, a 500 Internal Server Error error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

[Monie]

I think that I have saw/read you typing it that way in other post as well...
Is is just me or....?? LOL...

[alexgeek]

Monie, it's obviously a typo.
Spelling does not matter here, who cares!

[mcdanielnc89]

lol, I don't pay any attention when i type i jsut type, lol.. so it was a misprint, HAHA.

[mcdanielnc89]

mmk.. Well I got my layout for the error page but it doesn't show what error it is.. haha.. any ideas?

[Marc]

Ok.... In the error page say i call it error404.htm.. In that page i would put a 404 error.

Ach what the heck! I will write a tutorial on this and post it up tomorrow.

[mcdanielnc89]

I'm terribly sorry but I just don't get it. HAHA
