Last Updated : 27 Jun, 2023

The browser and the site server have a conversation in the form of HTTP status codes. The server gives responses to the browser’s request in the form of a three-digit code known as HTTP status codes. The categorization of HTTP status codes is done in five sections which are listed below.

Informational responses (100–199)
Successful responses (200–299)
Redirects (300–399)
Client errors (400–499)
Server errors (500–599)
