I needs to show the Json returned message.

In the controller, an exception is thrown and caught in a catch block. I am returning the fault error message.

In Ajax, the success part always executes. But if it is an error from my webservice, I don't want to execute the normal; instead I want to show an error message.

How I can achieve this?

My code below:

Controller

[HttpPost]

public JsonResult DeleteClientRecord()

{



    bool result = true;

    try

    {

        result = ClientCRUDCollection.DeleteClient(deleteClientId);



    }

    catch (Exception ex)

    {



        return Json(ex.Message, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);

    }



    return Json(new { result }, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);

}

AJAX Call

$(#YesDelete).click(function () {

    $.ajax({

        type: POST,

        async: false,

        url: /Client/DeleteClientRecord,

        dataType: json,

        error: function (request) {

            alert(request.responseText);

            event.preventDefault();

        },

        success: function (result) {

            // if error from webservice I want to differentiate here somehow

            $(#Update_ + id).parents(tr).remove();

            $('#myClientDeleteContainer').dialog('close');

            return false;

        }

    });



});

Please can anyone help me on this.
