HTTP status codes

For every request issued by a web client (browser), the web server returns a three-figure HTTP status code. The code goes with a short description.

HTTP status codes are specified in RFC 2616 under the control of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). For more information, see www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616.html.
