Custom 404 error page - PHP

[Eric]

Ok, probably not the best thing in the world but I got bored. So yeah, enjoy.

(Btw, this sends email on EVERY 404, soo, if you've got a decent sized site, I'd recommend disabling that..unless you really want a bajillion emails. But oh, why did I write that in .. in the first place? I have no idea..BOREDOM :p )

.htaccess:

ErrorDocument 404 /404.php

404.php

<?php

$config['email'] = '[email protected]';
$config['site_url'] = 'http://www.mysite.com';
$config['subject'] = 'Error: 404 on MySite.com';

function get_ip()
{
  $ip = '';
  if(isset($_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR']))
  {
    $ip = $_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR'];
  }
  else
  {
    $ip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
  }
  return $ip;
}

$time_stamp = date("l F j Y - g:i:s A");
$ip = get_ip();
$user_agent = $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'];
$req_file = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
$ref_page = $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'];

$headers  = 'MIME-Version: 1.0'."\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1'."\r\n";
$headers .= 'From: '.$config['email'];

@mail($config['email'], $config['subject'], "

<h1>Error - 404</h1>

<b>Date/Time: </b>$time_stamp

<b>User IP: </b>$ip

<b>User's browser: </b>$user_agent

<b>Requested page: </b>$req_file

<b>Referring URL: </b>$ref_page

", $headers);

?>
<html>

  <td><p><strong>Sorry, the page you have requested, <?php echo $req_file; ?>, does not exist on this server.</strong></p>
  <p>You have most likely followed a broken link or mis-typed the URL. You can check the URL and try again.<br>
  However, just in case this is an error on our part, an e-mail has been dispatched to the webmaster. <a href="<?php echo $config['site_url']; ?>">Return home</a>.</p>
  <p>Thank you.</p></td>

I CAN see uses for this for small sites that get a little trafic.. just for link checking...

But MAN! I get like 1200 404s a day from people mistyping imgs I'm hosting! my inbox would be packed! O_O!

Useful though.. to a point.

Or.. you could have it add the data to a database and then have one page to display all of them. Would be just like the email, but easier to read and less annoying.
