Is it ok to feel like a complete and utter moron? I figured out my [stupid] mistake. Internet Explorer overrides custom 404's less than 512 bytes, so I made sure my code was above that. However, nearly all of it is PHP; IE never sees the PHP section. Therefore, the chunk IE actually sees is less than 512. IE takes over and displays its 404. I really want to thank M$ for doing that... really... I think Bill needs a good . Anyway, the "ErrorDocument 404 /errors/404.php" line and its companions work just fine now. Thanks for putting up with me while I worked through my incompetence. Thumbs Up

Guess not. melody

I was reading some of the posts from page 1: fire truck, pooper scooper, dog doo, alcohol wipes, steering wheel, big wheels, Peanut butter and Jelly, Jamie Lee Curtis, Interstate 75 - most posted by the Head Guru himself - and thought that "Greek Gods" would be OK. My bad. Anyway... Love!

Awesome! It works! Many thank you's, Robert. I've said it before and I'll say it again: Rock Sign Two last things now: Is it supposed to show the address of the error page in the address bar when pulling up the 404? I didn't think it was supposed to do that, but I forget. In addition, after adding the absolute address to all the other lines as well, my 401 no longer works properly? It just doesn't seem to be my couple of days. Here's the code as it sits now: >ErrorDocument 400 http://www.wendlandfamily.net/errors/400.php ErrorDocument 401 http://www.wendlandfamily.net/errors/401.php ErrorDocument 403 http://www.wendlandfamily.net/errors/403.php ErrorDocument 404 http://www.wendlandfamily.net/errors/404.php ErrorDocument 500 http://www.wendlandfamily.net/errors/500.php ErrorDocument 501 http://www.wendlandfamily.net/errors/501.php ErrorDocument 503 http://www.wendlandfamily.net/errors/503.php

OK. Think I'm finally on the same mental page as everyone else. Thumbs Up I got to and edited the .htaccess file via the Cpanel File Manager, adding the following lines: >ErrorDocument 400 /errors/400.php ErrorDocument 401 /errors/401.php ErrorDocument 403 /errors/403.php ErrorDocument 404 /errors/404.php ErrorDocument 405 /errors/405.php ErrorDocument 500 /errors/500.php ErrorDocument 501 /errors/501.php ErrorDocument 503 /errors/503.php To be honest, those were the only lines in it. (Is that right?). Anyway, the document saves just fine. I tested the 401 (Unauthorized) error page by passwording a directory and then failing the login. The error page comes up just fine. Then, I tested the 404 (Page Not Found) by attempting to access a nonexistant page (something like "www.domain.net/dontexist.htm"). I still get the standard Internet Explorer 404 error page. Anyone have any ideas?

OK, as I've only done this once or twice before, perhaps I'm confused as to the process required to set this up. As shtml can't do what I'm looking to do, I did not use the shtml creation utility in Cpanel, but instead created my own custom error pages using PHP. My understanding is that in order to get these to work after uploading, I have to add the "ErrorDocument" lines to my .htaccess. Correct? In addition - ignoring the backups with the number extensions - I only have really one .htaccess file and it is the one I uploaded (possibly overwriting an original somewhere in the process). Also correct?
