No. /mydir is the directory I want the error page served for. It does actually work outside the PHP environment, eg: <Directory /mydir> ErrorDocument 404 "hello!!!" </Directory> and requesting /mydir/not_there returns a 404 with "hello!!!" in the page. But /mydir/some.php doing: header("HTTP/1.1 404 Rubbish!!!") _never_ causes the error document to be picked up. It's strange because the docs say this can be done; I can't find an example that is purported to work outside of the docs though. Nic
