    Right, I need to set my own custom error 404 and 500 pages.
    I know it involves a .htaccess file and all that, but my "knowing things" ends there.

    Create a file called .htaccess in the root directory of the server (the one you refer to as '/') and enter your error handlers in the following format, one per line:

    ErrorDocument [3-digit code] [action]

    For example, you can point to a custom 404 page like this:

    ErrorDocument 404 /errors/custom404.html

    You can also simply have it display some other text:

    ErrorDocument 404 "Sorry, this page doesn't exist.

    Make sure you begin the text with a quote (").


    Helpful, I hope so!

    If you have access to the httpd.conf, it's better to do it there, less resource intensive dontcha know.
