Emulate a 403 error page

Question

I know you can send a header that tells the browser this page is forbidden like   header  HTTP 1 0 403 Forbidden      But how can I also display the custom error page that has been created on the server for this type of error   By default  just sending the header displays a white page  but I remember a while back reading that you can use the customer error page  Does anybody know

Just echo your content after sending the header   header  HTTP 1 0 403 Forbidden     echo  You are forbidden

Use ModRewrite   RewriteRule  403 html  -  F   Just make sure you create a blank document called  403 html  in your www root or you ll get a 404 error instead of 403

For this you must first say for the browser that the user receive an error 403  For this you can use this code   header  HTTP 1 1 403 Forbidden       Then  the script send  error  error  error  error  error          so you must stop it  You can use   exit    With this two lines the server send an error and stop the script   Don t forget   that emulate the error  but you must set it in a  htaccess file  with   ErrorDocument 403  error403 php

I understand you have a scenario with ErrorDocument already defined within your apache conf or  htaccess and want to make those pages appear when manually sending a 4xx status code via php   Unfortunately this is not possible with common methods because php sends header directly to user s browser  not to Apache web server  whereas ErrorDocument is a display handler for http status generated from Apache

I have read all the answers here and none of them was complete answer for my situation  which is exactly the same in this question  so here is how I gathered some parts of the suggested answers and come up with the exact solution    Land on your server s real 403 page   Go to a forbidden URL on your server  or go to any 403 page you like  Right-click and select  view source   Select all the source and save it to file on your domain like  http   domain com 403 html now go to your real forbidden page  or a forbidden situation in some part of your php  example  http   domain com members this is forbidden php echo this code below before any HTML output or header   even a whitespace will cause PHP to send HTML TEXT HTTP Header and it won t work  The code below should be your first line        lt  php header  HTTP 1 0 403 Forbidden         contents   file get contents   home your account public html domain com 403 html   TRUE       exit  contents      Now you have the exact solution  I checked and verified with CPANEL Latest Visitors and it is registered as exact 403 event

Seen a lot of the answers  but the correct one is to provide the full options for the header function call as per the php manual  void header   string  string    bool  replace   true    int  http response code        If you invoke with  header  HTTP 1 0 403 Forbidden   true  403     the normal behavior of HTTP 403 as configured with Apache or any other server would follow
