Hi. My friend would like to make her 404 Error Page pop up in a small window so the person can just try clicking another link without being redirecting and having to load the page again. I don't know how to do this and was wondering if someone could tell me so I could help her with it if it's possible. Thank you.

PB&J beat me to it. Lol. :P Oh, I hope your friend has a domain/subdomain of her own that support .htaccess files, or else it won't work.

This creates a 404 page, but to have it appear in a new window, you could create the 404 page to open a pop-up window, i.e. 'pop_error.htm' and then set the page to go back to the page before automatically.

I'm not sure whether this works:

Place in the <head> tag.

<meta HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" CONTENT="1; URL=javascript:history.go=-1 ">

I'm not sure about the bit in red. Can anyone help out?

HTH,

im pretty sure theres a script that can automatically pop a new window and then create links to link to the page behind it (if you got that), but i don't know exactly where it is...
