Don't know what you're sever side environment is, but if you explicitly
create and HTTP status code other than 200 (or any in the 200's) the
prototype Ajax objects will call their onFailure function. So, in PHP
you could do this:
header("HTTP/1.0 403 Forbidden");
And, on the client side, the Ajax object would fire the onFailure
routine which could then be used to repaint the screen or force a
re-login or whatever.
