Google changes Verification - Post ID...

After having no problem with verification for months, suddenly would not verify my site. A little research showed it was how I handled the error pages in the .htacess file.

I explicitly defined my error pages using the full domain name;

www.lnfnresources.com/error400.shtml

Google now requires you to have "relative" definitions for security reasons, so /error400.shtml will suffice.

Just a little heads up for everyone to double check your verification in Google to see if it still works.
