How Do I Use Php In My 404 Error Page For My Site?
I want to use php, but it looks as though I can only save error pages as .shtml documents. Please help. Thanks.

As angela said, if you are using Apache as the server, you can just create the file “.htaccess” in the root directory of the website.
Put this in the file:
ErrorDocument 404 /404page.php
Create the 404page.php in the root directory of the site.
The page requested will be in the variable $REDIRECT_URL

Well, on my Windows XP Pro I’ve created folder c:inetpubwwwroottest, created application in IIS management console, set 404 error page to /test/404.php and created file:
< ?php
header('HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found');
echo "test";
Then open http://localhost/test/asdf and get “test” content.
Firebug says that it is 404.
My FastCGI INI:

To set up a custom error page on an Apache server, you need to be able to edit your .htaccess file. I have never heard of a requirement that it be an .shtml file. None of mine are. Most of mine are .html. a couple are .php.
I suppose that might depend on your host. http://www.pageresource.com/zine/custom4…
