Handling 404 Errors in Javascript
Handling 404 Errors in Javascript
Migrating between hosting and blogging solutions can cause headaches. Now that I’ve moved to an Amazon S3 hosted static website, I needed an intelligent way to handle certain features like tags and categories that I had with the blogger.com and Wordpress hosted site, without the need to host a server.
JavaScript to the rescue!
- I first identified the specific causes of problem using the crawl statistics from Google’s Webmasters tool.
- I then crafted JavaScript specifically tailored for these situations.
- Put that into my 404.html.
This solution is specific to my use case, but you can get the idea.
