Subject: New error page on amIright

Written By: ChuckyG on 03/19/07 at 11:23 am

when I used to build sites back in the mid 90's, I always included a 404 error message page.  Last few years I got super lax about it, wasn't even sure people still see them (IE tends to display it's useless messages instead).

I was checking a few out recently, and found a model i liked.. so here it is

404 Page

If you can think of something else that would be useful to someone navigating the site, let me know.

I have posted similar threads about this earlier...it seems to me that the system has been kicking me out with that 404 message every time I post a vote on a parody.  :o :-\\

I sorry I didn't get back to you sooner. This appears at the bottom of a parody page every time I click to comment after I vote:

Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /messageComment.php on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Apache/1.3.37 Server at www.amiright.com Port 80


The "Leave A Comment!" button becomes inoperable (colored grey). The message then pops up in a separate window on white background when I try to hyperlink to someplace else on the site, forcing me to exit out of the site altogether and start over. This is VERY frustrating! :-\\

Here is the link to the page where I recently had this occurrence, if it will help.

that's the dreaded 403 error that's plaguing all my sites since the security upgrades.  Can you tell me which browser you are using? I know IE and Firefox aren't having a problem.

It could be a security issue too.. if you're using a firewall that's blocking referrer tags or something, that might cause a problem.

Ah! Well...It is IE, I believe...but my company has a multitude of firewalls that crop up now and then. Things that used to be accessible suddenly NOT accessible is a way of life. (The bigwigs tried to block access to Myspace until they understood that it was an important aspect of our media research!).

Eh well, thanks for your time and attention, as always.

that at least gives me a clue as to where the problem lies.  up until now I suspected it might just be a Mac/Safari problem.
