A success status is whatever HTTP 200 status plus a valid dataType
that you specified as the response.
You can use PHP to echo back JSON like:
$error = 1
$json = array('error' => $error, 'text' => 'hello world!');
echo json_encode($json);
exit;
Then in your AJAX success callback:
success: function(data) {
if (data.error == '1') alert('failed');
else alert(data.text);
}
Remember to set your dataType to 'json' in your AJAX options.
