It's setup through the virtual server setup screens (either via web or the MMC) <tip type="iis custom errors" author="Mike King"> when you set up a custom error page within and IIS Virtual server. Point the errors at a URL, instead of an actual file. e.g. http://mysite.com/Errors/index.asp NOT c:\SiteFolder\ThisSite\Errors\index.asp Because, then IIS will pass the error number and the offending page to your error page e.g. try to go to http://mysite.com/NoPage.html Error goes to: http://mysite.com/Errors/index.asp?404;http://mysite/NoPage.html Then with a little coding you can tell the user nicely where they've gone wrong. </tip> --- cayley vos <cvos at yahoo.com> wrote: > I know how to write an .htaccess file to cause a > redirect on a website server if the queried page does > not exist (for 404,500 etc. errors) can anyone > elucidate me on this process using ASP for an NT > server? > > thanks so much! > > __________________________________________________ > Do You Yahoo!? > Yahoo!
