Re: Can Javascript check for existence of a page?

Not to my knowledge, but PHP can.

If your server supports PHP, then write these as PHP pages. Look into
the "file functions" for the functions that will check to see if a file
(the page) exists.

It's probably a lot easier to just step in and hand-code the last page.
At some point you have to admit that you, the web programmer, really
are necessary.
