Why is AJAX returning HTTP status code 0?

Question

For some reason, while using AJAX (with my dashcode developed application) the browser just stops uploading and returns status codes of 0. Why does this happen?

Answer 1

In my troubleshooting, I found this AJAX xmlhttpRequest.status == 0 could mean the client call had NOT reached the server yet, but failed due to issue on the client side. If the response was from server, then the status must be either those 1xx/2xx/3xx/4xx/5xx HTTP Response code. Henceforth, the troubleshooting shall focus on the CLIENT issue, and could be internet network connection down or one of those described by @Langdon above.
