Default Creating Error Page - 07-20-2004 , 02:55 PM






Hello,

I posted a message this morning and did not get a reply. I want to create an
Error page. I have already created a thank you page and know that you have to
redirect the page using a hidden field. I don't know how you redirect the
Error page. I assumed you cannot redirect the error and thank you pages on the
same page using the same redirect hidden field. please help!

What do you intend to use this Error page for..?
Also, what language are you using, simple HTML or server, such as ASP/PHP..?

If you are using a Form to Email, and have the thank you page for when it is
completed, and Error page for when something is not entered correctly, you
could simply have all this done on 1 page, if using a Server language, such as
ASP or PHP.

I am still a little vague of what your intended outcome is, and how you are
using this, I see from your other post, relating to radio buttons you mention
formail...so assume you are using an Form to Email...if you are using a
prebuilt one, if normally uses the form which sends the form details to check
for errors, and reports them on that page...if not, you can simply use a check
on your error page, so see if the Request.Form is not empty.

If you are simply looking to use an Error page which appears when a visitor
selects a missing link or types a wrong address on your site, commonly known as
404 page, then you need to check with your host to see if they accept custom
404.htm pages.

The problem is in your form processing script. It's this script that
redirects to the error page. If it's not redirecting then examine the
script.
