I've a little more investigation and i've noticed that when calling the show_404 it in fact loads the show_404 method from the common.php, so i've simply added a show_403 function to common.php
Code:
/**
* 403 Page Handler
*
* This function is similar to the show_error() function above
* However, instead of the standard error template it displays
* 404 errors.
*
* @access public
* @return void
*/
function show_403($page = '')
{
$error =& load_class('Exceptions');
$error->show_403($page);
exit;
}
this works a treat, but is in very bad form.
Am i to understand that the CI_Exceptions library is never explicitly loaded?
To that end, i believe the documentation on displaying errors to be slightly misleading, and IMO developers would benefit from a notice alerting to them to the fact that extended functions to to this library are not accessible via the global constructs, and require you to load/autoload it, as with any other library.
Hope someone can use this and avoid the time i wasted.
