Codes

[Rulupe]

When I try some links, my computer tells me that I have a code #304, or a Code #404. Can anyone tell me how I can get rid of these codes?

I assume you are refering to the error codes that a when server produces when it can't serve the requested page. An error 404 for example is a page cannot be found error. It's possible the link has changed or the content your looking for has been deleted. This is fairly common on the net. I call them dead links. Some search engines like Google (http://www.google.com/) can serve up an cached copy of the page by clicking on the word "cached" below the returned search. I frequently use this feature when looking at old information.

Here is a list of the error codes (http://www.the-eggman.com/seminars/html_error_codes.htm)
