Error Documents mod issue

Hi,

I am having a minor issue with my error documents module....I think. Recently since I have upgraded my site to the latest Raven Nuke distribution I have noticed my site statistics have dramatically increased. I did not understand why since my registration is locked and we have always had a similar amount of traffic on the site.

Recently when looking through my sentinel logs I noticed users are listing a ton of hits. When I view my logs I see that there are 2 or 3 error document logs for every page that is viewed on the site. But, users are not getting the error documents messages. Everything seems to be functioning normally.

I tried searching to see if I could find anyone else experiencing this issue but haven't found anything. Does anyone have any idea what may be causing this? Any idea how to stop this from padding my site stats?

Thanks!!

BTW...the error being produced is:

I've noticed hits to the ErrorDocuments module will occur behind the scenes if you have missing images or other missing files. Lets say you have a page animals.html with 3 missing images, that would equal 1 hit to animals.html and 3 hits to ErrorDocuments, even though the user never sees the ErrorDocuments page.

I noticed this when toying with a "last 10 page views" block...

I would recommended installing the web developer plugin for firefox, and try images > find broken images, it's likely that could be the cause. If not it could be a missing js file, among other things. You could also check your cpanel error logs and look for files being requested that are not there.

Thank you!!! That was it. Somehow I was missing themes/ravennuke.css from my files. Got it back in there and am producing no more errors. I was also missing the xhtml compliant graphic on every page.

Thanks for the help!!
