    I'm using 404 page to handle some extra menu in my blog. I put some script in 404.php file to handle every error link.

    It is run well for human. But, robot crawl know it as "not found" page. Please tell me how I can disable this 404 handle. So, my 404 page is knowing as a single page.

    You can see my blog in http://cafebisnis.com

    If you access using http://cafebisnis.com/memberarea you will see different result. Memberarea is virtual page that I create using 404.php file.

    Again, how to turn off 404 handle

    I would not disable the 404 page because:

    (a) it serves a specific purpose on servers -- 404 is the server code for "page not found"; it's not just for search engines, and

    (b) if you disable it, it's very likely that the server will just use its own 404 page ... you know, the ugly, shocking one with the gigantic black type that serves as a dead-end to both surfers and search engines.

    You can use a customized 404 page (looks like your site, contains info you want it to contain). If you need to give people an "extra menu", it would probably be better to just put it on your site somewhere.
