Unknown Location

[NuclioN]

Many visitors have this when you view who's online:

Unknown loction (in who's online)
/forums/images/spacer.gif

How is this possible and how to remove/change this?

huh?

noone ever has had this location here.
and it shouldn't be possible, because if this would be the actual url, the user is browsing, then it's an image, and therefore the vb engine wouldn't be initiated...

very vierd...

Every instance I've ever seen of this on my sites is because a template is pointing to the wrong location for clear.gif. Thus, what you're actually seeing is a 404 error.

Seriously.

Find the page that their at and look for an instance of clear.gif that's incorrect.

In this case it is spacer.gif i guess, tnx. I have to tell some members to report ehm...trough the shoutbox for example where they went on the forum(s) to have a clue where they are surfing during this error. Sounds like work

Problem solved! I've uploaded a spacer.gif to the directory that was pointed wrong and now the error is gone.

When I get a chance, I'll post the code I use in my 404 error page. It sends me an email with the page they were on and the file that's missing. That usually helps me resolve the problem.

Okay - here's the scoop...

Install this custom error page at https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...692#post527692

I've posted my additions to that hack just now in that thread. Let me know if you have any problems.
