2. To make a friendly and informative error page.Will be done as part of form validation and Ajax submission. Done as 404 page.

The error page style should be similar to dunstan error page, or inbuild and configure the dusntran style error page plugin.

If not all, as per the earlier least, i want you to use the maximum no of jquery plugin, to enhance the theme. As told, this should be also a showcase for jquery.

4. . Ajax contact formUnderlaying PHP code finished. Javascript Validation finished. Ajax needs to be added on top.
