You could always create an errordocument CGI that returns a LOCATION header that sends them to foo.net :)actually, that was one of the first things i tried, but i couldn't get it working.let me make sure that i understand you: do you mean to create a 404 page that does the redirection? if so, what is a straight html example of such a page?my web host will only allow plain html error pages, so i can't use php or whatever. it'll have to be plain, vanilla html.
correction: i was mistaken about not being able to use php for 404s. i can easily override this setting in .htaccess, which i just tried and it works, but the redirect is just shooting me to the root of foo.com instead of to the corresponding path.
in other words, if i try: http://www.foo.net/filename.htm ... instead of going to: http://www.foo.com/filename.htm ... it goes to: http://www.foo.net/i mean, looking at the script, which i yanked from an online tutorial, it's obvious where the problem is:
<? Header( "HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently" ); Header( "Location: http://www.foo.com" ); ?>i just need to figure out how in php to get it to respect the entire original file path.
it probably won't be too hard. if i get stuck, i'll post on a php list. - chase --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
