404 error message
Submitted by Adam Gallash on Thu, 2008-06-19 10:43.
Hi Guys,
I don't often see this error message come up when I'm browsing, but its obvious that a lot of you guys do. Can you guys please let me know when it happens, or what you are trying to look at when it does so I can try and alleviate the problem.
Cheers,
Adam

Adam - 404
I noticed under the Popular Content List on the BRHS of the main page, the first item in the Today's section is the topic
404 - Page Not Found
Could it be that people are seeing that and clicking on it and/or it attains that status because that page is invoked for other reasons?

Dont think so Col
Nah, I dont think thats it Col. Based upon the number of views it has received it has to be an error message derived from something on the site. I think it has been seen 14,000 times in only a few weeks which is concerning.
I take it that you can't have experienced it?
Cheers,
Adam

Hyperlinks
Mentioned this before Adam, when we click on a hyperlink, can it open another tab or session rather than take you offsite - yup; I know using FF I can right click and select from the dialogue list, but would be good not to have to do that?

they can
I could make the photo galleries like that, but I have ordered them from the first guys to jump on and major contributors in the early days and then onto the newer galleries. I move them about depending upon who's putting up photo's, mind you, I have re-ordered them for quite some time.
As for this logging out business, very strange indeed.
I will look into the new window hyperlink Col, just depends how embedded it is within the code or if its a simple option that needs changing.

Learning about donating
I have removed the learning about donating link, hopefully that will stop the 404 error. If you guys notice 404 errors for any other page, please let me know so I can try solve it.
Cheers,
