Hi,
I am a newbie, i looked at a couple of examples for creating webscripts and i could see that…

in the .js file we declare this:

if (folder == undefined || !folder.isContainer)
{
   status.code = 404;
   status.message = "Folder " + url.extension + " not found.";
   status.redirect = true;
 }
 model.folder = folder;‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

and have a relative 404 file.

File: blogsearch.get.html.404.ftl

<html>
  <body>
    ${status.message}
  </body>
</html>
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

Can anyone explain the relation between them if any.
If not, whats the purpose of the 404.ftl file…

Thanks in advance…

You may set any http status code on a web script response. By default, it'll be 200 (OK), or 500 (error). To set the status, the following javascript is issued:

status.code = xxx;‍

You may also customise the response content based on the error code. This is achieved by providing a template for the status code and adding this to your javascript:

status.redirect = true;‍

The status code template follows a naming convention where the error code is part of the name.

If you don't set status.redirect = true, then the standard template associated with the web script is rendered, however, the status code on the response header is still set.
