How do I get the HTTP status code with jQuery?

Question

I want to check if a page returns the status code 401. Is this possible?

Here is my try, but it only returns 0.

$.ajax({
    url: \"http://my-ip/tes

I found this solution where you can simply, check the server response code using status code.

Example :

$.ajax({
type : "POST",
url : "/package/callApi/createUser",
data : JSON.stringify(data),
contentType: "application/json; charset=UTF-8",
success: function (response) {  
    alert("Account created");
},
statusCode: {
    403: function() {
       // Only if your server returns a 403 status code can it come in this block. :-)
        alert("Username already exist");
    }
},
error: function (e) {
    alert("Server error - " + e);
} 
});
