in thread Doing a proper 404 redirect
Well, it kinda is a Perl question, since I want to be able to "express" a 404 error using Perl.
Regarding the 404, there was some wrong thinking on my part:) It's of course up to me to show relevant info when the 404 is made. But, I still want search engines and such to "get" that a 404 has been made.
In other words, I want to write a correct 404 header. The information displayed after that is basically up to me. |

Wait. So, given that you demonstrated you know how to print "301", you now seek knowledge how to print "404"?
Sorry, but that's way over my head. | [reply] |

No.
I'm seeking for the _proper_ way to _signal_ a 404 to whatever visits the site (search engines, bots, etc.).
As I wrote, there was a thought error on my behalf. I'm not looking for a redirect.

Right.... And you already shown that you know the proper way to signal a 301. You print 301. Now, do you still really not understand how to print 404? Let me explain how one can print 404.
print 404; # TADA! Magic!
Printing an optional message and mandatory network end-of-lines is left as an excercise for the reader.
Please come back to the site if you have problems printing a different number! | [reply]
