  • goathland!? o-o lol! i was about to ask you to post the 404.php code somewhere.... then i hear ya say that you did include it! i'll try this. thanks! :3

  • @ComputerProductions1 Thank you :) Glad you liked it... don't hesitate to contact me if you need any more help :)

  • Can anybody tell me, how i can input a 404 error on to a website like gamebattles so when somebody goes to report the score they can't and the link becomes broken :D ? much appreciated.

  • @wallaceboi As far as im aware this isn't possible. A 404 error is served up by the server when a link is broken, if the .htaccess file links to a custom page then the server will display this. But displaying one when someone reports a score im not sure... you can certainly host a 404 file and link to it if you wish. Anyone else have any ideas about this? I could be completely wrong, it may indeed be possible :)

  • nice video custom 404 errors wow

  • Thanks, something that I had been wanting to do on my site for quite a while and kept putting off because I thought it would be too complex. But when I saw how simple it was to do I decided I would share how easy it is with everyone else. :D

  • Thanks! Yer its supposed to make it clearer but it makes it sound a bit rubbish... the next video I make I won't bother with it... also can you send me your splash screen? I will add to my next video. :D
