How to Retrieve Error Response Text in jQuery $.ajax Requests?

Retrieving Error Response Text using jQuery $.ajax

When sending an error response to a jQuery AJAX request, it can be challenging to access the response text. By default, jQuery only provides the error status instead. To retrieve the actual response text, the following solution can be implemented:

Modify the error callback function in the jQuery AJAX request as follows:

<code class="javascript">error: function(xhr, status, error) {
  var err = eval("(" + xhr.responseText + ")");
  alert(err.Message);
}</code>

In this updated error callback function:

• The xhr.responseText property contains the full error response text.
• eval is used to parse the response text as JSON (assuming the response is in JSON format).
• The err.Message property is then accessed to retrieve the desired error message.

By implementing this change, the error callback function will now receive the parsed error response as the err argument. You can then access the error message (in this case, "Gone to the beach") through err.Message and display it accordingly.
