<p>This is what we in the business call a <b>404 error</b>. Web servers have their own
codes – kinda like police. Your browser usually knows what to do with these codes. <b>404</b> is the http code for "page not found."</p>
<p>There are tons of codes. Most of the time, you get a <b>200</b>, which is not an error. <b>200</b> is the code for "OK."
Anything in the 200 range is usually pretty good.</p>
<p>The <b>300's</b> are when you get redirected to another page automatically.</p>
<p>The <b>400's</b> mean you did something wrong like <b>404 Not Found</b> or <b>401 Unauthorized</b>. <b>418</b> means you reached a <b>teapot</b> instead
of a web server. That's always embarrasing.</p>
<p>Finally, the <b>500's</b> mean the server did something wrong. Those are usually out of your control.</p>
