The next time you get this 'HTTP 404 - File not found' error, a
little investigative work will usually uncover the missing page
for you. Most times pages are missing because a website has been
reorganized and the page's address has been slightly changed.
Here's a good example.
Up to last month my November 12th 'Quick Tip' was located at
"http://www.theexceladdict.com/quicktips/qtip054.htm". If you try
to follow that link now, you won't find it because I recently
reorganized my website - but the page is still there.
Start off by removing the last forward slash and everything to
the right of it from the web address and try that link. If that
takes you to a web page, check for links that may lead you to the
page you are looking for. If you get another '404 Error',
continue removing the next forward slash and everything to the
right of it. Chances are you WILL find the page you are looking
for.
