The ad on x10's 404...

[galaxyAbstractor]

Notice the header of the ad: "Jagf.net". No it isn't. Aren't there a law against "Domain stealing"??? I don't want another page saying it is jagf.net. And btw the link "staff.x10hosting.com", shouldn't it be "http://jagf.net"?

As for the first part, it's not domain stealing.. that would be replaced by whatever site you were on, it isn't just for that domain-- secondly, Yes, it should be your domain, however due to ongoing work it's not working correctly at the moment.

But I still doesen't want another site saying it is jagf.net. Then everyone that goes to a thing on my site that doesen't exsist he is going to think jagf.net is a weird search engine

This might seem odd, but out of curiosity, why would there ever be anything that doesn't exist?

I mean, if it isn't there why not make a page that says so: "Error, this page is under construction, please click back in your browser to continue."

No self-respecting website should have links that don't go anywhere, especially with how easy it'd be to use php to check for the existance of the file before loading it (if needbe), or to put a page in its place that states it's under construction.


Theres not much you can do to over-ride how x10 does ads on its 404 pages besides not having the 404; if the user is typing in addresses and they get it wrong, thats their problem - once they're on your site, none of the links should go to a 404'd page.

That's getting more into a webdesign discussion than the x10 404 page though.

I mean, I have no links leading nowhere on my site but if a guest would link to the forum index and type indexe.php instead of index.php.

I think there is something up with the servers....x10 is then working on it......if it isn't x10....then its not your hosts falt it's yours...u might have messed up somewhere.

I do not know what the problem is...or how it can be fixed but I guess it soon will be.

I do agree....you should be able to put a little string of text or something so your user will kno that your website is there,
or replace the staff.x10..... with your domain

I think paid members can use 404.shtml as their 404 page.
