Hi

Its my first time on this forum but i have been redirected here via my hosting company that host my website on a windows server.

I am creating a customised error 404 page so that if a page is requested on my site that doesn't exist it will be redirected to my own page cannot be found page.

As I understand it to be I can create a .htaccess file in the root directory of my site. Can any one point me in the right direction of what syntax i need to put in this file to make this happen please?

Apologies for the lack of knowledge. The version installed by my hosting company is ISAPI_Rewrite version 2.9

Thanks for getting back to me I have taken your advice and seem to have something what i was looking for. Cheers
