You can create your own internal codes as long as they don’t clash with the standard code. If the custom code is for a success, a 2xx code would be appropriate. If it is a user error, you could use a 4xx code. However, I would prefer to use the standard codes, and add a custom header with more information on the issue. -- Ed Leafe -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
