HTTP 100 Continue vs 403 Forbidden
HTTP 100 (Continue) is a 1xx Informational response, while 403 (Forbidden) is a 4xx Client Error response. 100 indicates that the server has received the request headers and the client should proceed to send the request body. This lets the client know it can continue with the request or abort if the headers were rejected. In contrast, 403 means that the server understood the request but refuses to authorize it. Unlike 401, authentication will not help — the user simply does not have permission.
