Hello All -

I've always used 404 error pages in my projects but after a little research, there are atleast 22 more error codes (both client request and server errors) which COULD be used as well.

I'm happy to template and trap for any and all of these via .htacces but would like the advice of the good folks here regarding which ones you guys and gals trap for on a regular basis?

All input and advice sincerely appreciated.

404 is fine.. just make sure to make them under the theme of the rest of the site so that the user can navigate to your home page or wherever they want.

I only worry about 200, 301, and 404.

You might also look at 410.

The 5xx may be good to have covered as well.
And 401, if applicable.
