xhr.open() 404

Hi all,

I wonder if anyone knows how to check that the url that is passed to xhr.open is indeed an existing url.

this.responseText spits out the 404 but i have no idea how to deal with it

I need to check the reason why it isnt connecting to give the user some feedback (and also to close a view)

but no matter what I attempt it just will not process any further

[WARN] Error Domain=com.google.GDataXML Code=-1 
"Operation could not be completed. (com.google.GDataXML error -1.)". 
in -[TiDOMDocumentProxy parseString:] (TiDOMDocumentProxy.m:48)

any ideas are welcome, thanks in advance

    Hi there,

    The HTTPClient request has a 'status' property that returns just the code you can check for (200, 404, 501, etc).

    You may want to put the subsequent (processing) code in an 'onload' - this only gets called if the response is successful.

    cheers,
    Chris.
