I want to detect in a script, which could be deployed beyond my control, whether the page was delivered with a HTTP status of 200, 404 or 500 etc.
This can’t be done, right?

Have the page make a XMLHttpRequest to itself (using
location.hrefordocument.URL) and check the HTTP status you get. Seems to be pretty portable way to me. Why you would do a thing like this is beyond my understanding though 😉
