[Mapbender-dev] JS exceptions

[Christoph Baudson]

Hello again,

thanks for your input Marc.

Returning a boolean sounds like a sensible thing to do. At the moment 
the php-class doesn't return a value either, so I will go and edit it as 
well.

I believe you, Marc, are quite experienced in Ajax, so I will ask 
rightaway: What is the best way to return the value? I would send http 
headers in mb_js_exception.php and just echo 'true' or 'false'. Is this 
the way it is done? Or do I have to build an XML?

Christoph
