René's URL Explorer Experiment

{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"DiscussionForumPosting","headline":"$http incorrectly reports back 404 on canceled request","articleBody":"As of 1.2.8, canceled $http requests return a status of 404, instead of 0.  It's a little tricky to reproduce on a public fiddle, but here's how:\n\nLoad the following full-screen fiddle and just keep trying to refresh the page before the page has fully loaded (F5, F5, F5, F5...).  Eventually you'll see an alert that says \"error callback 404\":\n\nhttp://jsfiddle.net/C4jRt/8/embedded/result/\n\nIn 1.2.7 and before, you'll get \"error callback 0\" as expected:\n\nhttp://jsfiddle.net/C4jRt/7/embedded/result/\n\nChrome and Firefox give 404, so it's not browser specific.  Firefox swallows the alert when you refresh, so you have to be quick to see it.  I couldn't ever see the alert in IE, so.\n\nI'm relying on this status code to handle and react to errors.  My web server is a little slow, so I don't want to show a bunch of errors to the user when they refresh while they're waiting for it to come back.\n\nv1.2.8 (incorrect)\nhttp://jsfiddle.net/C4jRt/8\n\nv1.2.7 (correct)\nhttp://jsfiddle.net/C4jRt/7\n","author":{"url":"https://github.com/langdonx","@type":"Person","name":"langdonx"},"datePublished":"2014-01-31T15:10:40.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":11},"url":"https://github.com/6074/angular.js/issues/6074"}
