Hello: The last line in the .htaccess file is ErrorDocument 404 http://www.mydomainname.com/missing.html
The docs: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/core.html#errordocument say: ===== Note that when you specify an ErrorDocument that points to a remote URL (ie. anything with a method such as http in front of it), Apache will send a redirect to the client to tell it where to find the document, even if the document ends up being on the same server. This has several implications, the most important being that the client will not receive the original error status code, but instead will receive a redirect status code. This in turn can confuse web robots and other clients which try to determine if a URL is valid using the status code. ==== .. solution: don't do that. Use a path to the error page in your url space, like: ErrorDocument 404 /error_pages/404.html If necessary you can use Alias to bring this directory in to your url space. -- noodl --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
