On my CC sub domain I've (with Virtualmin) set a special page to be shown on a HTTP 404 error like this:
[ATTACH]2236[/ATTACH]
[ATTACH]2237[/ATTACH]

And now my question is: Is it possible (with PHP or anything else) to at my special page (second screenshot) show which page that wasn't found? For example if someone tried to go to the page "http://vswe.codecall.net/ThisPageDoesNotExists" then at the page showed at the second screenshot it will tell the user which page they accessed and then tell them that that page doesn't exists.


Thanks :D

<?php

echo "You accessed: ".$_SERVER["HTTP_REFERER"]."<br />This page doesn't exist."; 

?>

Something like this? Bye!

I tried it but it didn't work... :(

That's strange, what does $_SERVER["HTTP_REFERER"] print out?
PS: How do you tried it?

[Vswe]

Nothing at all...

HTTP_REFERER

Quote

The address of the page (if any) which referred the user agent to the current page. This is set by the user agent. Not all user agents will set this, and some provide the ability to modify HTTP_REFERER as a feature. In short, it cannot really be trusted.

See this on my space. It work.
Another question: when you do the redirect to ?p=404 you see on the url ?p=404 or still the wrong page?

[Vswe]

You're seeing the "?page=404" one.

I did so and it printed out a lot of stuff, I'll check if I can find what I want somewhere in there.

Sure, I said that it haven't had to be PHP, I'll try it. :D
