Thanks for your suggestion John. There's no way to do it in my own sites? i have to get the system guys in the hosting company to do it?
The control panel we use turns on custom 404s (and other IIs error messages) but doesnt do it for CFM. So I have to build something in coldfusion to handle it, or else beg and plead for the system guys at the hosting company (who arent anywhere near as accommodating I am with my own hosting clients) to do it. These fellas have the view that if i want something, then I must be up to some skullduggery by default. their default answer to anything is "no". (Please dont suggest moving hosts - if the client was going to do that I'd have moved them to my servers ages ago!). All i need to do is have some kind of 'missing template' handler for coldfusion templates, implented on a site basis not a server-wide basis. Apparently, judging by the lack of ideas of how to do it, it can't be done. No?
