Rewrite URL after redirecting 404 error htaccess

Question

So I know this may seem a little strange but I for sake of consistency, I would like all my urls to appear in this form: http://domain.com/page/ So far I have gotten the regular pages working but I cannot seem to get the error pages working properly.

If the user visits a page or directory that does not exist, I would like the browser to hard redirect to: http://domain.com/404/ This directory, however, will not actually exist. The real location of the error page will be under /pages/errors/404.php

Also, although I do not need an exact answer for all the various errors (400, 401, 403, 404, 500), I will be applying whatever method is given to redirect all of these to their "proper" URL's (eg. http://domain.com/400/ http://domain.com/500/ etc.)

Any ideas?

Try adding this rule to the top of your htaccess   RewriteEngine On RewriteRule  404     pages errors 404 php  L    Then under that  or any other rules that you have    RewriteCond   REQUEST FILENAME   -f RewriteCond   REQUEST FILENAME   -d RewriteCond   REQUEST FILENAME   -l RewriteRule   http   domain com 404   L R

Try this in your  htaccess    htaccess  ErrorDocument 404 http   example com 404  ErrorDocument 500 http   example com 500    or map them to one error document    ErrorDocument 404  pages errors error redirect php   ErrorDocument 500  pages errors error redirect php  RewriteEngine On RewriteBase    RewriteCond   REQUEST URI    404   RewriteRule         pages errors 404 php  L   RewriteCond   REQUEST URI    500   RewriteRule         pages errors 500 php  L     or map them to one error document   RewriteCond   REQUEST URI    404    OR   RewriteCond   REQUEST URI    500    RewriteRule         pages errors error redirect php  L    The ErrorDocument redirects all 404s to a specific URL  all 500s to another url  replace with your domain     The Rewrite rules map that URL to your actual 404 php script   The RewriteCond regular expressions can be made more generic if you want  but I think you have to explicitly define all ErrorDocument codes you want to override   Local Redirect   Change  htaccess ErrorDocument to a file that exists  must exist  or you ll get an error    ErrorDocument 404  pages errors 404 redirect php   404 redirect php   lt  php    header  Location   404        exit    gt    Redirect based on error number  Looks like you ll need to specify an ErrorDocument line in  htaccess for every error you want to redirect  see  Apache ErrorDocument and Apache Custom Error    The  htaccess example above has multiple examples in it   You can use the following as the generic redirect script to replace 404 redirect php above   error redirect php   lt  php     error url     SERVER  REDIRECT STATUS              error path    error url     php       if     file exists  error path              this is the default error if a specific error page is not found        error url    404             header  Location       error url      exit    gt
