[Seaside] Ajax Callback with Response Code other than 200

[Johan Brichau]

Indeed.

There is a bit of doc on this here: http://book.seaside.st/book/advanced/restful/request-response
Although it’s in the context of REST, the #respond: method can be invoked in any request context (hence “self requestContext respond: [:response | … ]) to take low-level control on what Seaside should respond.
 And there are methods on WAResponse to set the status code.

Cheers and happy new year!
