http error code handling.

[chebbi]

Hi

Is there a way in javascript to handle http errors. Like once the page loads at the start of the page can i have a script tyo detect a particular http code generated by the page and take actions accordingly like redirecting to a different page or something.

Typically i would like to handle http error code of 500.

Thanks

i would say no:

1. the http status codes are in the header. js has no access to header info.
2. js is client side - the browser or server is going to send you to its own error page first before the requested (non-existent in the case of 404) page is loaded.

if you want to set up your own custom error pages, this is typically done on the webserver.
