Ruben Verborgh: >>> The most important HTTP-specific things are: >>> - 404 if the fragment (page) is empty >> >> Hmmm….. > > Please clarify your sentiment :-) > > The reasons for "404 for empty" are as follows: "The 4xx (Client Error) class of status code indicates that the client seems to have erred." http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7231#section-6.5 An empty page or fragment is (normally) not a result of an error. Any 4xx code therefore is (normally) inappropriate. Cheers, Andreas
