Example 4: http status codes
Some important http status codes are:
200: The one you will mostly want to get. Succesful transfer
301: Moved Permanently. 300 defines Redirections
404: Not found. 400: bad requests as 401 Unauthorized and 403 Forbidden.
502: Bad Gateway. 500 defines Internal Server Errors.
Example 5: 200 error code
The HTTP 200 OK success status response code indicates that the request has succeeded. A 200 response is cacheable by default. The meaning of a success depends on the HTTP request method: GET : The resource has been fetched and is transmitted in the message body.

Example 6: status code login success
The header that the server sends is either the 200 OK or 401 denied status codes on success or failure.
See http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec10.html Section 10.4.2 401 Unauthorized for this.
When sending the 401, the server must send a
WWW-Authenticate = "WWW-Authenticate" ":" 1
to indicate what scheme should be used to authenticate.
See http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec14.html Section 14.47 WWW-Authenticate for this.
