I have custom 404 error handling setup on my linux apache
box, however, there's a problem with files that have a PHP
extension. it seems that apache itself does not check for the
existence of the requested .php file and fires up PHP no matter
what. if PHP does not find the requested file, it'll bail out
with that dorky looking Internal Server Error *NOT* the
custom error handler that apache uses for non-php files
example: notexists.html and notexists.php both do not exist
http://server.com/notexists.html
will show me the custom 404 page
http://server.com/notexists.php
will show me the Internal Server Error, becuase apache fired
up PHP and passed in notexists.php without checking for the
existence of notexists.php first.
That would be the correct response from apache.
Add this to your httpd.conf
ErrorDocument 500 /path/to/my_error_page.html
That should get you the result you want.

P.S. http://httpd.apache.org/docs/custom-error.html.html
A possible solution that comes to mind is to auto_prepend
a script that will check for the existance of the file
that PHP is attempting to execute, and die gracefully if
it does not exist on the server but that would be a bad
kludge hack (if it even works at all)
anyone have a more elegant solution?
