The request of a "404 Not Found" [Solved]
Hello,
When a bad request is sent to a website, we have a 404 Not Found server answer, and we have two interesting tags <txp:error_status /> and <txp:error_message /> for our error template.
Can we grab the bad request somewhere ? Then we can have an error template that return :
404 Not Found the article bad article doesn’t exist on this server
Plus : this bad request can be grabbed by some statistics tools.
Thanks

I use http://thebombsite.com<txp:page_url /> over at The Bombsite to return the full URL requested. I suppose you could use the TXP tag on it’s own though you have the problem of the leading “forward slash”.
Can’t help with the statistics side of things though errors are usually collated by server software that you can access through your cPanel.

Thanks Stuart.
When I use <txp:page_url />, the requested value begin with a slash like you said.
So I just have a look at the function page_url() and deleted the slash like this (on the error_default template) :
<h4>«<b><txp:php>print eregi_replace(“^/”,”“,page_url($request_uri));</txp:php></b>» : <txp:error_status /></h4>
<h5><txp:error_message /></h5>
Then I can display something like this, if I send test-bad-request in my browser :
« test-bad-request » : 404 Not Found
The requested resource was not found.
For the stats, I use BBClone and a plugin to integrate it in TXP, so I will hacked it using page_url($request_uri) to grab the requested value.

I really should look at PHP. ;)

You could also use ltrim(page_url(), '/'). Unnoticeably faster by ~3E-5 seconds :).
