Are the available HTTP Status codes documented anywhere? Put another way, is it possible to issue all of the HTTP Status codes? I am thinking about 501 not implemented for instance. Thanks ---

Standardized codes are defined by IETF as documented in Request for Comments (RFC) publications and maintained by the IANA. Other, non-standard values are used by various servers. The descriptive text after the numeric code – the reason phrase – is shown here with typical value, but in practice, can be different or omitted. Status codes defined by IETF are listed below.

I meant the list of codes implemented by Nginx. I think I have seen such a list before on the wiki perhaps but can’t recollect where. Particularly, I am thinking of comparing them with those provided by ngx\_lua. Thanks ---
