WP 404 Error Template

I have a 404 template in my Wordpress theme - I want to redirect all 404's to front page.

<?php get_header(); ?>

    <div id="content" class="narrowcolumn">

        <h2 class="center">Error 404 - Not Found</h2>

    </div>

<?php get_sidebar(); ?>

<?php get_footer(); ?>

Code (markup):

Can I put a javascript redirect in here instead of the text??

Is there a better way??

Edit: Reason is I need to add an ID to the url and do not want to have to 301 already indexed posts

 

i would use the following

 

Thanks, That worked!

Trying some plug ins but these seem to get the job done!

 

no problem
