In this tutorial we will discuss Custom Error Pages using htaccess
How to create own error pages for your website, First.htaccess file in editor. When it is open, you just put given below code per error page.
First step open .htaccess file and put given below code to file
ErrorDocument 400 /400.html
ErrorDocument 401 /401.html
ErrorDocument 403 /403.html
ErrorDocument 404 /404.html
ErrorDocument 405 /405.html
ErrorDocument 408 /408.html
ErrorDocument 414 /414.html
ErrorDocument 500 /500.html
ErrorDocument 502 /502.html
ErrorDocument 504 /504.html
Second step, PHP sample code for handling with any kind of error, if you want to make it simple:
<?php
$status=$_SERVER['REDIRECT_STATUS'];
$codes=array(
400 => array('400 Bad Request', 'The request cannot be fulfilled due to bad syntax.'),
401 => array('401 Login Error', 'It appears that the password and/or user-name you entered was incorrect.'),
403 => array('403 Forbidden', 'Sorry, employees and staff only.'),
404 => array('404 Missing', 'We\'re sorry, but the page you\'re looking for is missing, hiding, or maybe it moved somewhere else and forgot to tell you.'),
405 => array('405 Method Not Allowed', 'The method specified in the Request-Line is not allowed for the specified resource.'),
408 => array('408 Request Timeout', 'Your browser failed to send a request in the time allowed by the server.'),
414 => array('414 URL To Long', 'The URL you entered is longer than the maximum length.'),
500 => array('500 Internal Server Error', 'The request was unsuccessful due to an unexpected condition encountered by the server.'),
502 => array('502 Bad Gateway', 'The server received an invalid response from the upstream server while trying to fulfill the request.'),
504 => array('504 Gateway Timeout', 'The upstream server failed to send a request in the time allowed by the server.'),
);
$errortitle=$codes[$status][0];
$message=$codes[$status][1];
if($errortitle==false){
$errortitle="Unknown Error";
$message="An unknown error has occurred.";
}
?>
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<title><?php echo("$errortitle");?></title>
<meta charset="utf-8">
</head>
<body>
<!-- Insert headers here. -->
<?php
echo('<h1>'.$errortitle.'</h1>');
echo('<p>'.$message.'</p>');
?>
<!-- Insert footers here. -->
</body>
</html>
