Description
JSP HTTP Codes - The HTTP stands for “hyper text transfer protocol” used to provide the communication between the server and the browser. While requesting the server through the browser, data will be sent through the HTTP by URL link. Sometimes errors may be occurring due to server problem or browser problems, these errors will be indicated by codes will be in number formats, by using those codes client can easily understand the problem.
JSP HTTP Codes - The GET method is the default method to pass data from client to web server and it delivers a long string that shows up in the browser’s Location. Never utilize the GET method in the event that you have secret key or other touchy data to go to the server. The GET method has size constraint: just 1024 characters can be in a solicitation string.
The solid method for passing data to a backend code is the POST method. This method bundles the data in the very same route as GET strategies, yet as opposed to sending it as a content string after a ? in the URL it sends it as a different message. This message goes to the back end program as the standard information which one can parse and use for preparing.Following are the some important status codes.
Description
Following are the different status codes.
| Code | Message | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 101 | Continue | Only a part of the solicitation has been gotten by the server, however the length of it has not been rejected, the customer should continue with the solicitation. |
| 200 | Ok | Request is ok |
| 202 | Granted | The request granted but not completed. |
| 204 | No Content | Server got the request but data is not there to send. |
| 302 | Found | Asked page has moved to new URL briefly. |
| 400 | Not Found | Server can't discover the solicitation page. |
| 401 | Unauthorized | This page needs user name and password. |
| 404 | Bad Request | Server is unable to get the request. |
