The read-only XMLHttpRequest.statusText
property returns a string containing the response's status message as returned by the HTTP server. Unlike XMLHTTPRequest.status
which indicates a numerical status code, this property contains the text of the response status, such as "OK" or "Not Found". If the request's readyState
is in UNSENT
or OPENED
state, the value of statusText
will be an empty string.
If the server response doesn't explicitly specify a status text, statusText
will assume the default value "OK".
Note: Responses over an HTTP/2 connection will always have an empty string as status message as HTTP/2 does not support them.
