Okay, I went the the HTML help on Lissa Explains, and it didn't help me, because I didn't understand. I need some help. Someone tell me how to do this with some screen shots maybe. Thanks in advance.

Does your host support .htaccess?

Well, I think you just helped me there, No it says, .htaccess does not refer to a page in this web. Uhh?

if you look in the FAQ or HELP area of your host, it should say about "htacess" files or customized error pages. if it does not, you should contact them by their email or form.

htaccess may cause security issues, so most free hosts will not allow it.

It means the file you're linking to doesn't exist, or can't be found in the place you told it it was.

Check spelling, slashes, extensions, if the file is actually there, capitalization.
