Custom 404 control

[eluser]louis w[/eluser]
Another possible solution would be to edit the error_404.php error page to load your custom view. I have done this on a view projects.

Code:

<?php header("HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found");

if (function_exists('get_instance')) {
    
    $CI= &get;_instance();
    
    $CI->load->view('errors/404');

} else {

    // Existing html in the error_404.php page

}
